Java Runtime 6 Update 21 (32 bit) inside Firefox 3.6.8

General:
- inspected RAT reports for source and binary distribution


Tests on apache-pivot-1.5.1.zip

- checked md5 on apache-pivot-1.5.1.zip
- checked that root files are good (README, LICENSE, etc)
- opened and inspected all pivot jars to ensure the content is right,
and check that new files under meta-inf are present
- opened javadoc index, and tested some random pages
- deploy demos and tutorials wars in a local tomcat 6.0.28 instance,
and verify that the two web applications are working, that all links
are good (pages, applets, web start applications), and that all pages
have the right content inside


Tests on apache-pivot-1.5.1-src.zip

- checked md5 on apache-pivot-1.5.1-src.zip
- checked that root files are good (README, LICENSE, etc)
- setup environment: using ant-1.8.1, junit-4.8.1 and maven-ant-task-2.1.0

- run many ant commands: clean, test, clean, dist, install,
maven-install, and ensure that all works good

Here's what I tested:

   - Verified all MD5, SHA, and PGP signatures against all artifacts
   - Verified that the contents of the tar.gz artifacts matched that of the
   zip artifacts exactly
   - Verified that the contents of the source distribution matched that of
   the SVN tag exactly
   - Inspected the NOTICE and LICENSE files to make sure the licenses are
   correct and that the files are in order
   - Verified that the source distribution compiles without error (checked
   clean, compile, doc, test, dist, and install targets)
   - Inspected source and binary distribution RAT reports:
      - Checked that all files were properly licensed
      - Checked that all non-Pivot jars and applicable binary files were
      covered by the NOTICE/LICENSE files as appropriate

Cheers,

NOTES:
