Agreed, it's not blocking for the release, but it is blocking for (some) people wanting to test the release... I think the build instructions should be included in a file (e.g. README) in the source archives; it would not harm to include the information on the site as well, e.g. as done by http://commons.apache.org/io/building.html http://commons.apache.org/lang/building.html > > Also, build.xml seems to be out of date, as it refers to junit 3.8.1. > > I don't think this is a problem. > It's not a blocker, but should be upgraded for the next release along with project.xml which also refers to 3.8.1, whereas pom.xml is 3.8.2 > > -- > Look, that's why there's rules, understand?
