The Javadocs are added as HTML to the bin archives, but it might be worth adding a javadoc.jar to the Maven output. The bin archives contain two .js files in the top-level directory; these don't have AL headers - are the files supposed to be there? -1: The src archives contain several jar files under the lib directory - they should not be there. Likewise the entire release/ directory tree. The src archives should match what is in the SVN tag, although the DOAP file is normally omitted, as is PROPOSAL.html > - Jörg > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
