Michael Osipov commented on MRELEASE-948:
-----------------------------------------
I consider this to be very ASF-specific and partially out of scope for a
general plugin.
> Add options to verify release based on release.zip
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MRELEASE-948
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MRELEASE-948
> Project: Maven Release Plugin
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: perform
> Affects Versions: 2.5.3
> Reporter: Robert Scholte
> Priority: Major
>
> For Apache projects, the release.zip is the official release and not the
> scm-tag(!). In such case it is much more important to verify that file,
> especially if there generated files like DEPENDENCIES are added, which might
> cause the rat-plugin to fail. These failures are not detected when building
> based on the tag.
