+1 Site looks good, tests all pass, artifacts look good. Potential issue: RAT warns that src/ide/eclipse/4.3.2/organize-imports.importorder does not have a license.
I could be wrong, but I don't think this is a showstopper. This file is not in any of our binary distribution artifacts (although it is in the -src artifact). This seems similar to the warning for the two js files, and we agreed with previous releases that these are not a problem: src/site/resources/js/jquery.js src/site/resources/js/jquery.min.js Also, the log4j-perf module is excluded from the binary distribution as discussed on the ML, but the apache-log4j-2.0-rc2-src artifact contains the source files for the log4j-perf module. Just to clarify: this is intentionally, and not a problem, right? I noticed several other minor things, none of them showstoppers, just making a note here so they can be fixed in an upcoming release: Artifacts: Looks like only the JUnit tests for the log4j-core module are in the apache-log4j-2.0-rc2-bin artifact. None of the other modules have a <module>-tests.jar file... Not a showstopper AFAIC, but worth looking into. StyleGuide page: Says that block indentation should be +2 spaces, but we're using +4 spaces. Says to indent continuation lines with at least +4 spaces, we're using +8 spaces. Has several links to "Column limit:120)" with a closing bracket ')' but no opening bracket. JMX page: Description for starting JMX Client GUI is missing log4j-api-2.0.jar in classpath. (last 2 command line examples at the bottom of the page) Extending Log4j Configuration: Spelling mistake: "Programattically Adding ..." -> Programatically Components side-nav: not all modules have all 6 Component Reports (Should have Rat Report, Checkstyle, JavaDocs, Source Xref, PMD, CPD) * Commons Logging Bridge: missing PMD, CPD * Log4j 1.2 API: missing CPD * SLF4J Binding: missing CPD * Log4j2 to SLF4J Adapter: missing PMD, CPD * Tag Lib: missing PMD, CPD * JMX GUI: missing CPD * Web Applications: missing Checkstyle, JavaDocs, Source Xref, PMD, CPD * Web Applications has unnecessary "JIRA Report" link * NoSQL Support/About: text now says: "Need something about CouchDB/MongoDB"... * NoSQL Support: missing Checkstyle, JavaDocs, Source Xref, PMD, CPD * NoSQL Support has unnecessary "JIRA Report" link Many Checkstyle warnings/errors for all modules. No showstoppers that I can see. Issue Tracking: first link on that page should be to the Log4J issue tracker, not to the Atlassian Jira product page.
