NOTICE.txt is non-standard; see
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/vcl/tags/release-2.2.1-RC2/NOTICE
for a conforming example.
There's no Incubation DISCLAIMER.
SVN and the tar.gz both contain a copy of Findbugs, which is LGPL and
therefore cannot be distributed by ASF projects.
There are several other 3rd party libraries which don't use the Apache
License, but which are not mentioned in LICENSE.txt
All licenses must be included in LICENSE.txt, or at least referenced from it.
IMO these are all blocking.

Hi Edward,
72 hours is the normal waiting time for a vote. Many votes run for a longer
period of time. There's no need to re-open a vote.
FYI, I never received your original vote email. Not sure if anyone else got
it...
I took a quick look at your release. You have problems with your LICENSE/NOTICE
file. There are artifacts in your lib under a non-Apache license. Yet there is
no mention of them in your LICENSE file. I would also expect that your NOTICE
file does not contain the appropriate attributions.
Also, a DISCLAIMER is required for incubator releases.
Finally, both conf/log4j.properties and src/test/log4j.properties need to have
apache source license headers added.
Here's my -1 until these issues are resolved.
