Setting Up Release Directory...?

Is there anything else I need to do before [1] can be processed by 
infrastructure?

I was wondering about giving Creadur a little bit more of a suite feel 
by including a download section on the top level website

I think we should fix the binary assembly; should not be too difficult.

The creadur RAT site includes download links to 0.9 but is headed 0.9-SNAPSHOT.

Should we sort out the binary assembly before cutting a new release or 
just rush out what's in trunk...?

True

Probably worthwhile doing a limited announcement (creadur website and so on)

I think so.

Note that 0.9 takes much very longer than 0.8 if there are long files
that don't contain the license near the start.
This is because 0.9 has several extra scanners, all of which are very
inefficient on such files.
0.8 only had one such scanner.

I've fixed these issues in SVN.

So maybe worth holding off until 0.91 (or whatever) can be released.

Anyone that wants 0.9 has probably already fetched it from Maven ...

Sorry about the repeated checkins; I think it's all OK now.

Apologies for dropping the ball on this, and thanks for getting this 
sorted out :-)

Also, in other TLPs with sub-components, the files are put in a fixed
directory structure - i.e. the version does not appear in a directory
name.

For example commons lang:

http://www.apache.org/dist/commons/lang/
http://www.apache.org/dist/commons/lang/binaries
http://www.apache.org/dist/commons/lang/source

The advantage is that all the current versions are together, and it's
obvious which is source and which binary.
The disadvantage is that it is a bit harder to see which versions are
available, and removing stale versions is a bit harder.

On reflection, I rather like the current creadur structure !

I was about to update the download.xml page when I noticed that the
dist area [1] does not use binaries/ and source/ directories.
Is that intentional, or should I fix that first?

That has now been finished.

Would someone else please adjust the Creadur Rat download page
to point to the 0.9 release. (I do not do Maven.)

I will then do the remainder of the tidy-up at Incubator.

I reviewed things a few days ago and i cannot see any problem.
Looking at other unresolved issues in that SvnPubSub Component
there does seem to be a general holdup.

It is strange because you replied to the Assignee Gavin
immediately in early May.
