Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS, JDK 11.0.8, Maven wrapper
[OK] Checked signatures and checksums
[OK] Release artifacts contain "apache" and "incubating" in the name
[OK] Diff between git repo and release artifacts matches
[OK] DISCLAIMER-WIP, LICENSE are present and correct
[OK] Checked NOTICE file content and distribution years
[OK] Location of the KEYS file is correct
[OK] README contains build instructions
[OK] No unexpected binary files (find . -type f -exec file {} \; | grep -v
text)
[OK] All source files have ASF headers (grep -RiL "Licensed to the Apache
Software Foundation")
[OK] Built from source artifacts and run tests (./mvnw clean package)
Initially I encountered some failures due to build-cache entries [1]. Once
I deleted those the build passed so it seems that the issue is resolved.
[OK] Version identifier is in the expected format (0.4.0-incubating)
[KO] Downloaded and checked the following jars from the maven staging repo
for LICENSE, NOTICE, DISCLAIMER, and contents:
xtable-aws-0.4.0-incubating-bundled.jar
xtable-hudi-support-extensions_2.12-0.4.0-incubating-bundled.jar
xtable-hive-metastore-0.4.0-incubating-bundled.jar
The issues [2, 3, 4] around license documentation in the bundled jars are
still present but not a blocker for the release.
Best,
Stamatis
