It's important that released poms *not* have these repositories
listed. It causes problems in corporate environments where projects
are only supposed to build against a list of approved, internal
repositories.
Let's put it in the release procedure and make sure they get commented
out for next time.

Heh good point - and I'd never noticed!. I spend more time in commons
now where releases usually do. Anyway its up to you - ignore my
babbling :)

Neither Struts 2.0.6 nor Struts 1.3.8 binaries have it. Your suggestion
seems reasonable anyway, but I don't know if it is an Apache standard or
not.

They are, but usually copied and pasted into a text file and shipped
with the distro - no?

Ok, I'll manage to change the log messages.
I also saw a load of messages in the output referring to the

In fact we're not relying on snapshots releases anymore, but I think this is
not a problem, since the Maven release plugin automatically checks snapshot
dependencies, and if they are found, the release cannot be done.

You're right, the tiles-api pom defines the exclusion of LICENSE and NOTICE
from the root, this rule should be applied to all poms.
RAT report is clean :)
A clean RAT is not an utopia, after all :-)

I think that posting JIRA release notes is pretty standard. Or am I missing
something?
Thanks for the comments!

A couple of comments...
Running the tests causes the following warning along with a stack trace
WARNING: Cannot find TilesContextFactory class
org.apache.tiles.jsp.context.JspTilesContextFactory
Seeing a stack trace makes me think theres a problem that needs
resolving - better IMO to log the warning without the stack trace.
I also saw a load of messages in the output referring to the
apache.snapshots
(http://people.apache.org/repo/m2-snapshot-repository) repository -
looking at the pom the repository section has a comment saying "Needs
to be commented out for releases".
Minor nitpick - the tiles-core and tiles-jsp jars have duplicate
LICENSE and NOTICE files (in root and meta-inf directories).
RAT report is clean :)
Personally I would prefer to see the release notes in the distribution
- rather than a Jira link.
The only one of these that seems to be an issue to me is the
apache.snapshots repository one - but I'm not a maven expert.
