Patrick Hunt commented on ZOOKEEPER-45:
---------------------------------------
Andrew, re your comment on changelog - that sounds reasonable but Apache
requires that we provide a change log with each release of the project that
details every feature added and bug resolved since the last release.
Looking at hadoop core I see that they have a large collection of src (incl
c++) and contrib packages, but a single changes.txt at the toplevel.
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/hadoop/core/trunk/CHANGES.txt
More background: http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HowToContribute see "creating a
patch" section.
I could see where we maintain multiple change log files and build a single
toplevel changelog.txt during the release process but it wouldn't be as simple
as cat'ing multiple files together (as the changes in each file are split into
releases/sections).

> SVN and the ant build have to be updated after the initial import from
> SourceForge (see INFRA-1644) in order to get us aligned with Apache release
> process/collateral and some general cleanup of the repository. Please
> review/comment on the following:
> I intend to follow these steps:
> 1) collapse svn hadoop/zookeeper/trunk/zookeeper/... down to
> hadoop/zookeeper/trunk/... (remove unnecessary zk dir under trunk)
> 2) change the java package prefix from com.yahoo to org.apache
> 3) update the license headers in all source files
> 4) replace LICENSE file in root dir with Apache LICENSE file
> 5) add attribution NOTICE file to root dir
> 6) update the README file appropriately
> 7) create a new "src" directory in the zk root
> 8) move root "c" directory into src
> 9) move root "java" directory into src
> 10) create root "docs" directory
> 11) create src/docs directory
> 12) rename src/java/src to src/java/main
> 13) move root "test" directory to src/java/test
> 14) build.xml will be updated appropriately for all the moves. it will also
> be updated with apache specific targets similar to what exists in hadoop
> (such as building the forrest documentation).
> steps 10&11 are required for zk documentation storage. src/docs is the
> location of all documentation in "forrest xml" format - the documentation
> source/originals (what you edit when you change the docs). the ant script is
> setup to build docs (forrest) into the root docs directory. these files are
> also committed to svn (both docs and src/docs). later, during a release
> process, the files in the root docs directory are checked out onto the system
> hosting the apache web site and pushed to the mirrors.
> I'll submit patches for any changes/additions of files. However I suspect
> that the directory move operations in SVN will not have an accompanying patch
> - this "script" is the documentation of what will be changed (comments added
> for any deviation).
