I reviewed the uimaj-2.1.0-incubating-src.tar.gz distribution. The
signature verified fine. The incubator disclaimer in the DISCLAIMER and
README files, which looks good to me.

Below are four issues I spotted.

(1) Source headers in generated output

info from original post:
 We've run the RAT utility and have posted the reports, along with our
 own comments, here:
 http://people.apache.org/~alally/uima-2.1.0-incubating/RAT/RAT-src.txt
 http://people.apache.org/~alally/uima-2.1.0-incubating/RAT/RAT-bin.txt
 
 The original unedited RAT reports are also posted:

Thanks for posting your RAT output, especially since you noted the
current version of RAT crashes on the UIMA source distrib. :-)

Regarding not including the ASF header in generated output, although it
isn't required it's still a good idea to include it where feasible so
end users aren't confused about usage [1].

In my opinion it isn't a show stopper for this release, but if I were
you, I'd go ahead and include the header when in doubt and if it's
reasonable to do so.

Incidently, the src-headers page [2] mentions a handy tool in the
committers repo [3] that will actually slap those headers on for you in
a comment for various file types.

(2) Old headers

When I ran insert_license.pl [3] in practice mode, it spotted these
files that have the old-style copyright, and they must be replaced with
the current header [2]:

uimaj-2.1.0-incubating/uima-docbooks/CatalogManager.properties
uimaj-2.1.0-incubating/uima-docbooks/project.properties
uimaj-2.1.0-incubating/uima-docbooks/MANIFEST
uimaj-2.1.0-incubating/uima-docbooks/xml-catalog.xml
uimaj-2.1.0-incubating/uima-docbooks/src/css/stylesheet.css
uimaj-2.1.0-incubating/uima-docbooks/src/styles/html.xsl
uimaj-2.1.0-incubating/uima-docbooks/src/styles/pdf.xsl
uimaj-2.1.0-incubating/uima-docbooks/src/styles/common_custom.xsl
uimaj-2.1.0-incubating/uima-docbooks/src/styles/htmlsingle.xsl
uimaj-2.1.0-incubating/uima-docbooks/src/styles/pdf/titlepage.xml
uimaj-2.1.0-incubating/uima-docbooks/src/styles/pdf/custom.xsl
uimaj-2.1.0-incubating/uima-docbooks/src/styles/html/titlepage.xml
uimaj-2.1.0-incubating/uima-docbooks/src/styles/html/custom.xsl

insert_license.pl [3] outputs a line like this for these files with the
old header:

uimaj-2.1.0-incubating/uima-docbooks/src/styles/html.xsl,
extension=.xsl, fileType=xml, Found existing license (licenseType=AL-20)
so skipping, WARN: old AL-20 copyright notice

(3) NOTICE file

Wasn't UIMA started with an initial code contribution? If so, I would
expect its NOTICE file to include some sort of attribution; see:

http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html#notice
http://www.apache.org/licenses/example-NOTICE.txt

(4) UIMA Podling status at http://incubator.apache.org/projects/uima.html

The copyright and verify distribution rights work items haven't been
checked off -- that suggests that the ip clearance hasn't quite yet been
completed yet. Or maybe it has and the status just needs to be updated
to reflect reality.

So, issues 2-4 must be fixed.

Dear Incubator community,

Thanks to Dan Kulp, we have a +1 vote to release so far.

We need of course 3 binding +1 votes to release; could some other folks 
please

take a look at this?

Thanks for your time and efforts in doing this - we really appreciate it!

Just to be clear, we plan to fix the issues Dan raised in the next 
release, which is not yet scheduled, but will be sometime in the 
future.  We ask that the Incubator PMC members review this, the current 
release candidate, and look forward to your feedback and votes.

A quick look through this looks OK to me for the src and bin 
distributions. 


Great!




HOWEVER, I notice you are using Maven for builds.   Is UIMA planning 
on releasing the 2.1.0-incubating artifacts to the maven repository 
so other maven based projects can use it?If so, then we have 
problems.   You would need to get those artifacts into the staging 
area as well so we can look at and vote on them.   A quick look reveals:


We currently have no plans to release anything to the maven 
repository.  Hopefully in the future sometime, but not for this release.




1) The jars don't have the incubator disclaimer in them.  (this is 
the critical one)


I see.  I didn't think this was required, but I understand it makes 
sense when individual jars are downloadable from the maven repo.  
We'll make sure to have the disclaimer in there before we release 
anything to the maven repository.


2) The name for jVinci doesn't have Apache UIMA in it. 3) The 
poms don't have a licenses section

4) The organization tag doesn't have a url to apache.org


All of these make sense, even if we're not distributing anything via 
maven repos (yet).  Will fix.  Thanks for taking the time to look at 
our release candidate.


--Thilo





So, I'm +1 (non-binding) on these exact distributions, but -1 if 
there are maven artifacts that are supposed to be deployed along with 
it.


Dan
