    Checking:
    
    + does everything work on Linux?
    + does everything work on MS Windows?
    + does everything work on OS X?
    + are the GPG signatures fine?
    + are the checksums correct?
    + is there a source archive?
    
    + can the source archive really be built?
              (NB This requires a "mvn install" first time)
    + is there a correct LICENSE and NOTICE file in each artifact
              (both source and binary artifacts)?
    + does the NOTICE file contain all necessary attributions?
    + have any licenses of dependencies changed due to upgrades?
               if so have LICENSE and NOTICE been upgraded appropriately?
    + does the tag/commit in the SCM contain reproducible sources?
