Hello, Ali, you made a great job with that. Even when I have some points we need to deal with, its fantastic that you pushed it forward. Please keep it on!
Here is what I have seen so far: - Unusual CHANGES file: I usually see people adding issue numbers our of Jira - Example NOTICE file: http://www.apache.org/licenses/example-NOTICE.txt, Mockito is not mentioned with link as the others - server-config.xml, jsongadgets.json, jaas.config no license. Maybe others too? Please utilize: http://creadur.apache.org/rat/ it's a great tool to check our licenses - request_codereview wrong license (Google Inc)? - files in /spec - allowed to distribute? No License given, where do these files come from? - src folder: we usually use org.apache prefix. Not seen any classes with that - thirdparty: allowed to distribute? Check with compatible licenses. Full list whats working what not is here: http://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#category-a - Wave Logo (/war) seems to miss TM symbol. Please check: http://www.apache.org/foundation/marks/pmcs.html - Whats the meaning of wave-0.4-release folder? - Whats the meaning of whitepapers folder? So far I am -1, mostly because I am concerned on the licensing things. Maybe we can shed some light on it. In any way, everybody is invited to help with these issues, committer or not. If you are lurking around and have an interest in help Wave surviving, then pleas see this: www.apache.org/foundation/how-it-works.html And send in your patches!! :-) Thanks again Ali! Please note, the first releases are always the difficult. When Upayavira or I do not find anything, you can be sure somebody else from the IPMC finds something. Please consider this as "educational". We need to make Apache Wave having some legal ground too, and thats how we make sure it is all good. So please everybody, keep motivation and help further with all the issues. If you do and bring out a release, I promise I will write a blog post on it on my personal blog which is usually well visited! That's my little contribution and hopefully motivating a bit. Cheers Christian PS: I haven't checked signatures yet and only looked at the src package On Sat, Jun 1, 2013 at 1:09 AM, Ali Lown <a...@apache.org> wrote: > It is finally time to get a release out into the world.
