RC0 for uimacpp distribution

There is an initial release candidate for the UIMA C++ framework at
   http://people.apache.org/~eae/uimacpp-distributions/2.1.0/RC0/

Thilo, can you please look through the distributions and let me know
what issues you see with the overall package?

There are source and binary distributions for Unix and Windows if
anyone wants to play.

Thanks,
Eddie

Sorry, please ignore that.  I was confused.

What I meant was, when we start the [VOTE] thread, it would make sense 
to point this out to people (so they know that these files don't need 
any Apache license headers).  Alternatively, we could create an 
annotated RAT report like I did for the Java version where we explain that.

I won't have time to look at the source distribution this week, I'm 
afraid.  Hopefully next week.  Sorry about that.

Thilo,

Thanks for looking this over. Please see some questions below

> * LICENSE file needs the variables filled in.
Is this related to the comment about appending other licenses to this file?
If not I am at a loss.

Good point. Will move to a more recent version of APR.

The doxygen generated html identifies itself as being generated by doxygen
at the bottom of every page. I looked for information on the doxygen
site about other
requirements to acknowledge doxygen, but could not find any. Can you
say more here?

Fixed.

The xerces release here is already 2.0 licensed, and APR will be too.
Will ask the incubator-general about ICU.

Hi Eddie,

here are some things I found.  First, binary distribution.

* LICENSE file needs the variables filled in.

* The APR headers still use the old 1.1 Apache license.  Is this the 
latest version of APR?  I'm not suggesting you change the license, to 
the contrary.  Just wondering if there is a later version available 
that's already under the 2.0 license.

* For the release voting, we'll need to say how the documentation is 
automatically generated with doxygen (because there are no license 
headers).

* uimacpp/include/uima/msg.h and uimacpp/include/uima/msgstrtab.h have 
no license headers.

* The licenses do not go into separate subdirectories.  Instead, all 
licenses are appended to the LICENSE file.  In addition, in the NOTICES 
file, you spell out what software you include that's not Apache 
licensed, and under which license (which is then in the LICENSE file). 
You'll need to do that for the ICU, and I guess Xeces and APR, because 
they are 1.x licensed.  We should ask on incubator-general about the ICU 
license, but I assume it's ok because Xerces is also using it.

That's it for today, I'll take another look tomorrow, and hopefully also 
at the source distribution.

Thanks Frank. Clearly the scriptators had not been tested on Windows!

Eddie,
Just something I noticed:
The Scriptator docs reference MakeFiles and .vcproj files that don't
appear to be in the vc8 release candidate. 

Thanks,
Frank
