We got a reply (not from a IPMC member) to our release vote on
[EMAIL PROTECTED]  Hopefully we can not deal with the Maven
issues for this release, but one thing may be a problem - are our jars
missing the DISCLAIMER file, and is that a requirement?

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


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:

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


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.
