+1 (binding) I checked: - source distribution -- incubating is in the name/version -- checksum and signature are good -- DISCLAIMER is present -- LICENSE and NOTICE are good. nit: the source distribution contains mvnw coming from Apache Maven but it's not mentioned in the LICENSE (not strictly require but I like to have it) -- no binary/compiled file in the source distribution (only the crt and pem files which is not a problem) -- ASF header are present (nit: lombok.config could have the ASF header) - binary distribution -- incubating is in the name/version -- checksum and signature are good -- DISCLAIMER is present -- LICENSE and NOTICE are good (nit: LICENSE mentions j2objc-annotations 2.8 but only 3.0.0 is actually included in the binary distribution) -- ASF header are present in script (bin folder) and conf
