Either would do. It's probably easiest if you just place your public key
up next to the RC files.

Ok. Perhaps you could mention this in the RELEASE-NOTES.txt file? :-)

Wherever the apache license is, a NOTICE file needs to be there too.

Both files should be in the root directory of the unpacked distribution.

Both files should also be in the META-INF directory of every jar file.
Unfortunately maven's default jar-building process only puts the
LICENSE.txt file there. This doc shows how to include it:
