Hi, > IMO, all of your quotes refer to source releases.
Please reread there are serval references that the binary must be made from an source release and that only official voted on releases can live in dist. Your modified binary also doesn't comply with Apache licensing policy (it would require a change to the NOTICE file). > There might be more flexibility. There might be but is it really that hard to follow official policy and thus be under the legal protection it gives? Again this issue has been know about for several weeks. Thanks, Justin
