This is the second incubator release for Apache Wookie, with the artifacts

We have already received 2 IPMC +1 votes (plus an additional 3 PPMC +1
votes) during the release voting on wookie-dev. (We need one more IPMC vote)

The LICENSE file looks incomplete - it should contain copies of all
the 3rd party licenses, not just URLs (although those are useful).
Right, it looks like sebb is right: the LICENSE file has a few references to 3rd
party licenses for which it doesn't have their text copied in :(
I failed as a mentor here. While I pointed out several things to fix with the
NOTICE files, I overlooked this part of the LICENSE files. But as the LICENSE
file does copy other 3rd party license texts, I didn't notice these and simply
assumed all were still present.
Clearly I wasn't as thorough as I should have...
I'm puzzled though how this regression happened. The 0.9.0 release did have all
3rd party license texts copied. Anyone can shed a light on why?
At any rate, while I know of quite a few TLP releases which have similar (if not
worse) omissions and still got released, the rules within the Incubator are more
strict, as well as some of the reviewers.
Just as an addition point of information, not as an intended point of action:
For the ASF a release vote requires only 3x +1 votes. For a PPMC this means it
requires 3x +1 from IPMC members.
However, *releases may not be vetoed* ... [1]
If a 3x +1 is received, it is the responsibility of the Release Manager to
decide if the release is accepted. And can do so, even with a number of -1 votes...
I'm not suggesting to ignore the -1 from sebb, as I think he does have a valid
point, and normally that should be enough to pull back a vote.
But formally this -1 vote is not a veto.

Ate
