but writing it in the VOTE mail does not really solve the problem imho. One has still to verify if the created artifacts are actually based on the given branch. btw. of the last 10 vote mails on commons components, > 50% did not have a revision mentioned, and still nobody complained or could not review properly. > > > @NOTICE file: > > > > I fail to understand how adding additional entries (that may not be > > required) can result in a -1 vote. > > http://www.apache.org/dev/licensing-howto.html#mod-notice > > Notice the last (bold) sentence in the section. > It does not contain the phrase *must not* or *shall not*, thus you can argue if it is really mandatory. Furthermore, Commons-Math has already seen several releases with a more or less identical NOTICE file, so this release would certainly not create a precedent. Imho, it would be reasonable to cast a 0- vote, highlight the issue and give the maintainers the chance to fix it after the release.
