Sorry but I have to vote -1 on this, the -source-release.zip archives
in the staged release do not contain the DISCLAIMER file that's
required for incubator releases. Considering how the build is nicely
automated, I hope it's just a matter of tweaking a few settings.

Note that we cannot vote on svn tags - from the comments in your vote
I understand that's clear for you, but people might be tempted to do
that ;-)

I have just committed two helper scripts at the top of the Stanbol
trunk, lifted from Sling, here's how people can use them for your
"197" staged release:

./check_staged_release.sh 197
downloads the staged repository so that you can look at it, and checks
digests and signatures (if you have imported
http://www.apache.org/dist/incubator/stanbol/KEYS)

./check_release_matches_tag.sh 197 /tmp/stanbol-staging
checks that the downloaded source-release archives match the
corresponding svn tags. This is not required for Apache releases but I
usually do that as a sanity check.

We can then vote on the contents of those source-release archives -
people should download them with the above script, check them, and I
usually include their md5 digests in my vote to have a precise
reference.
