[VOTE] Release VelocityTools 1.4

Ok, folks.  I believe it's time to wrap up VelocityTools 1.x and move
on.  This is the last planned release in the 1.x series.  Since i
really don't think anyone has other changes waiting in the wings for
the release, i went ahead and rolled the test build.  Please test
thoroughly, so just maybe it can really be the last one without any
point releases for typos or build problems.  :)

The test build for this release is available at:
http://people.apache.org/~nbubna/velocity/tools/1.4/

Please vote regarding your support for releasing this test build as
VelocityTools 1.4:

[ ] +1 Let's do it
[ ] +0 Have fun; i don't care.
[ ] -0  Not sure about this, but i won't stop you.
[ ] -1 No, because __________________

The voting period is typically 72 hours, putting its close time as
roughly 5pm PST on Saturday, Nov 17th.  If i do not find time amidst
chores that day to finish the release process, then i will do so
first thing Monday morning (assuming the vote passes), with the hope
that we can announce the release Tuesday morning.

My vote is +1

sigh.  i always forget the maven stuff.  i write myself notes to
remember these sort of things when rolling a release, but then i
forget where i put the notes.  :)

thanks for catching this stuff.  i don't really mind re-rolling the
release, as i have that process fairly streamlined.  i'm not all that
thrilled about asking ya'll to have to re-vote and all that.  but
since you apparently check them more thoroughly than the rest of us, i
suppose that's the biggest burden on you. :)

not worth it, but since i'm re-rolling, i suppose i might as well...

Nice work!  Some notes:

The pom.xml file lists "1.4-dev" as the version.  Would it be worth it to
re-roll the release and keep the maven mavens happy?

No big deal, but if we did re-roll it, we should fix:
* readme.txt file has the old URL for Velocity, not the new one.
* readme has the old email list addresses.
* the readme.txt has conflicting info on required JDK for building.  On line
32 it claims a min of  1.3.1.  Line 75 says 1.4.  But actually it requires
1.5 (or so ant tells me).

I ran "ant test" under JDK 1.4 (failed with appropriate error message), JDK
1.5 (worked) and JDK 1.6 (worked).

I'm -0 due to the pom issue but would flip to +1 if someone tells me this is
ok or it's fixed.
