I've now added the RAT plugin to run as part of itest\distribution\legal-checks so it now automatically does the RAT checking there and will fail the build when there are RAT errors. In the plugin definition there are some excludes for few things that don't have headers so if other things like that get added we need to update that. Thats presently only checking the binary distribution so we still need to add something similar for the source distribution. We should try to do this type of thing for as many as possible of the manual steps we currently have in the release process to make it easy and fast to cut a release, and try to avoid adding manual steps to the release process in the future. ...ant
