I'm fine to run whatever, but fwiw this is the first I've heard of Rat...and 
I'm primarily working on an incubator project at Apache...

I'll give Rat a look, but hope folks still find the repolinter config file 
useful (for those who don't have a ready Java stack installed).

Cheers,
Benjamin

Well this must have changed since the last time I was active on the
IPMC; RAT was very explicitly mentioned at the time. Looks like that got
lost in the Incubator website update? That's a shame.
