Time for a companions release
I've wrapped up all of the Chainsaw changes I want to include in this release. Any feedback would be welcome. Current tarball and DMG available here: http://people.apache.org/~sdeboy/ Now it's time to get the Companions out the door. There is no reason to release the ZeroConf companion since ZeroConf support is built-in now, so we may as well delete that. Since I don't have the signing key stuff set up, does anyone have time to work on this? If not, I'll see what I can do. Scott

Re: companions release
So what are the remaining outstanding tasks? Remove ZeroConf companion? I haven't done anything to support OSGi for the companions.. I'd really like to get these out the door so I can start a vote on a Chainsaw release soon.. There are some redundant files (Compare, VectorAppender if I recall), although Compare isn't identical everywhere, it does make it annoying to have everything set up in as source in Idea.. Also, maybe it's time to move VFSLogFilePatternReceiver out of Chainsaw and into the receivers companion.. Its tailing support is much better than the basic LogFilePatternReceiver..would require adding a dependency on VFS from receivers, but I don't think that's a big deal.. Thoughts?

Should be excluded from the check, but I think the Apache RAT plugin doesn't honor exclusions, so may have to revert to the earlier codehaus. Maybe it is time to file bug reports for the releases that we want to make. If there are release blocking bugs, they should be listed as blockers for the release bug. I haven't checked the bug list, but I don't know of any. Was there a companion that we wanted to abandon?
