It is great to see all the renewed activity in taglibs Thanks to
Pierre, Felipe, Martin, and others.
It will be nice to see some new releases of existing taglibs.
For any of you contemplating being a release manager I wrote up
some documentation on how to do this at:
http://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/addtaglib.html
This may need updating, its been a while since I looked at it.
Things to add would be verifying that the release uses the new
Apache 2.0 license. Another thing to add would be generation of
an MD5 checksum for the release archives. (Some people prefer
just checking the md5 checksum rather than verifying a PGP
signature).
Regards,
Glenn

That's a beginning - but we're still short compared to the number of
taglibs.

Agreed. Once I finish some more bugs and read all the HOWTOs, I will
propose new releases for some.

Interesting, I didn't know that document (I found the HOWTO_RELEASE on
CVS a couple of days ago, but this link is more complete).

Just scratching my itch... ;-)

Very nice. I've been doing the RM thing for some time now, for Struts and
a few Jakarta Commons components, so I've got the basic idea down pat, but
there are clearly some Taglibs peculiarities, so this is great.

Yah, I've been generating both digests and signatures for Struts and
Commons for a while now. The only oddity I've found is that the MD5 files
generated on minotaur seem to need editing to conform to the norm of
what's in such a file.
