[jira] Updated: (PIG-34) Making Pig release ready

["Stefan Groschupf (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-34?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Stefan Groschupf updated PIG-34:
--------------------------------

    Attachment: PIG-34_v_1.patch

This patch adds 
LICENSE.txt, NOTICE.txt and README.txt.
Also there is a new ant target (ant release) that also generates a md5 checksum file as requested for the PMC release process.
I'm not a license expert but looks like the jars we use are all BSD license what would be ok based on this reading:
http://people.apache.org/~rubys/3party.html#criteriaandcategories
However someone needs to double check that.

> This is from email on pig-dev from Bertrand Delacretaz:
> I wrote a blog post [3] while mentoring Wicket, it might help as an overview.
> > ...I found some online documents
> > (http://incubator.apache.org/guides/releasemanagement.htm) about it 
> > but I don't have a very good feel for what is the minimal set of 
> > things we need to do to get ready....
> I'd say the minimal set is
> 1) Check that the required external libraries (if any) can be distributed, see [2]
> 2) Create the required NOTICE and LICENSE files, see [1] and [2]
> 3) Generate distribution artifacts which include this info
> 4) Call for review of these artifacts, followed by a vote here and then a vote by the Incubator PMC.
