Ant 1.7.1beta available

[foamdino]

Hi all,

I've uploaded a signed complete distribution of 1.7.1beta to:

http://people.apache.org/~kevj/ant/ant-1.7.1beta.tar.gz

It weighs in at ~50mb

NB.
I'm now up to #10 in the ReleaseInstructions, 11 seems easy enough, but
"
12. Once this is uploaded, unpack things, create the release directory,
    something like v1.7.0Beta1, push the release and RELEASE-NOTES files
    into this directory.  Create a symbolic link named README.html
    that points to the RELEASE-NOTES.

    The files should go to /www/people.apache.org/dist/ant/ on
people.apache.org.
"
Ok, so I extract *all* the distribution I just uploaded into a
directory called v1.7.1Beta, add the RELEASE-NOTES file, ln -s
README.html RELEASE-NOTES, but all of this is in
/www/people.apache.org/dist/ant/, not my directory?

Is my understanding here correct?

Thanks,
Kev

Hello Kevin,

This is wonderful that you are taking care of the 1.7.1 release.

I am trying to remember all this, and I am getting confused myself.

When I login to people.apache.org and go to
/www/www.apache.org/dist/ant, I see these files :

 > cd /www/people.apache.org/dist/ant
 > ls
antlibs        v1.7.0Beta3    v1.7.0RC1
 >

this matches with what one sees under the URL
http://people.apache.org/dist/ant/

So you are going to create using your UNIX user a directory v1.7.1Beta1
under /www/people.apache.org/dist/ant with a directory structure similar
to /www/people.apache.org/dist/ant/v1.7.0Beta3 (plus or minus the
changes which happened since then).

Good luck,

Regards,

Antoine

I'm sorry I didn't catch this earlier but we seem to be in conflict
with the policies of which license or notice information should go
into which file.

My current understanding (from hanging out on the ASF's legal mailing
list, not from actually understanding any legalese, much less US
legalese) is that all licenses of all stuff we ship must go into the
LICENSE file while all notices need to go into the one and only NOTICE
file.

I've started to make the 1.7 branch compliant to my interpretation and
will also clean up a few files RAT complains about.  I hope to be done
by the time my lunch break is over 8-)

Since we don't distribute JUnit (neither in the binary nor the source
distro) I've moved its license next to the jar.

You'll need to create new archives, I'm afraid.

No worries, I'm getting used to it now :)

Obviously I didn't manage that (finishing within the bounds of my
lunchbreak, that is).  The branch should be OK now.

I'm just running svn merge of all my changes for trunk (which will be
followed by running RAT on trunk, fixing remaining issues and
re-generating the site, oh my).

Yes, in the old beta I had made a mess of some documentation (egrave
eacute) and Stefan had noticed that the license files were incorrect -
I thought that there were enough changes to warrant calling this a
second beta (even if the first beta never actually got put on the dist
site)
