New Marmotta Release Candidate (for checking)

[Sebastian Schaffert <ss...@apache.org>]

Dear all,

I uploaded a new release candidate to people.apache.org.

The distribution archives are available at:

http://people.apache.org/~sschaffert/3.0.0-incubating-SNAPSHOT/

The created Maven artifacts are available at:

http://people.apache.org/~sschaffert/repo/


Most important changes are
- the Apache RAT plugin has been configured properly and added to the
release task (i.e. no release without RAT check)
- the license headers have been updated in all files that were reported by
RAT
- the tests should now run properly in every country
- the logging level of tests can now be configured using ...
-Droot-level=DEBUG|INFO|WARN|ERROR for most tests

Andy and Fabian, if you find time checking the release again it would be
very appreciated. I am away over the weekend, so take all the time you need
:)

The RAT report can now be invoked using

mvn apache-rat:rat

;-)


Greetings,

Sebastian

Nice check list, indeed. As we discussed this morning at irc, I think we 
are fine for all those points.

169M of repo and 47,807 lines later ...

Looking pretty good.  I poked around a bit but this is not comprehensive.

Do expect comments on N&L from other people on IPMC - there are lots of 
aspects about N&L files so each of us has a prespective but unlikely to 
be a complete picture.

** Can't find EzWare in LICENCE or NOTICE

from
./launchers/marmotta-splash/src/ext/java/org/oxbow/swingbits/util/swing/Icons.java

This shows up as an unapproved licenses (because it's reformatted?)

** Can't find Sun Microsystems

./commons/sesame-tools-rio-rss/src/ext/java/com/sun/syndication/feed/synd/SyndEnclosure.java

(rometools is mentioned)

PS 1: A BUILD file to explain the build (and output) might be nice, it 
is not necessary.

PS 2: to the PPMC:

A release vote is not just "go for it".  It's oversight of the product 
and project.

For a release vote, the minimal set of tests before voting +1 might be 
(this is cribbed from DeltaSpike)

----
is the GPG signature fine?
is there a source archive?
can the source archive really be built?
is there a correct LICENSE and NOTICE file in each artifact (both source 
and binary artifacts)?
does the NOTICE file contain all necessary attributions?
check the dependencies.
do all the tests work?
if there is a tag in the SCM, does it contain reproduceable sources?
