[Proposal] Avalon Framework 4.1.4 rc 5

I have uploaded Avalon Framework 4.1.4 rc 5 to:

http://avalon.apache.org/~bloritsch/framework-dist/

Please let me know if there is anything that would prevent
a release.  If there are no complaints, I will put it up
for vote tomorrow ~Noon EST.

you did! at least, I saw the commit that did. But for some reason it 
didn't get through, I guess. When I build the dist from cvs it does get 
included.

fixed in cvs. We were neatly filtering src/src/proposal out :D

just the included files. fixed in CVS. I guess someone replaced <include 
name="build.xml"/> with <include name="target.xml"/>. I'll remember to 
look at distribution targets when I change things inthe feature.

No.  I agree with Leo's comments on the cleaning up of the packaging but 
that's non-blocking IMO.

Cheers, Steve.

I'll do that prior to a vote on the release.

Do you see anything that would block a release?

One request - could someone put in place a Avalon_4_1_4 tag on the CVS 
corresponding to this release.

Cheers, Steve.

Can be fixed--in fact when I update the site documentation, I will
make that link work.

Those are an artifact of compiling test classes in with the regular
classes I believe.

Really, I thought I fixed that.

It doesn't filter those out.  It should filter out the proposal stuff
though.

What would you expect from the setup?  We might as well get it right.
I can throw together a new release today--I just don't want this
dragging on forever.

not complaints, but did noticed some imperfections:

Some minor things:

- the docs link to http://avalon.apache.org/framework/api/index.html
which doesn't exist. Not really an issue with the release but it needs 
fixing.

- the jar in the binary distribution contains several empty "test" 
directories. Note this is true for 4.1.3 as well; never noticed it before.

- the docs/api directory is empty for the binary distribution (but it 
does exist).

- the source distribution contains src/maven and src/proposal; not sure 
if that is a good idea, but they were in 4.1.3 as well so we should 
probably keep them for consistency. Again, something I never really 
noticed before.

One major thing:

- the ant buildfile and needed entity files (ie build.xml, 
check-targets.ent, forrest-targets.ent) are missing from the source 
distribution. This makes it somewhat difficult to build :D

cheers,

- Leo
