We have updated many source license/header files and added the LICENSE, NOTICE files.However, the RAT report shows that there are lots of files without the correct headers. AIUI, the correct headers are a *requirement* for a release: http://incubator.apache.org/guides/releasemanagement.html#release-legal-audit There's a document somewhere describing how to deal with existing copyright headers. It should be referenced somewhere in the Incubator documentation.
Generally, copyright notices should be moved from their original location in the source and put into the NOTICE file. Since there is already the Sun copyright notice in NOTICE, the original can simply be replaced by the Apache license. The history in svn has the original copyright so it's not lost.
There are different forms of the Apache license depending on the type of file, e.g. java source has the /** style format, xml would have the <!-- format, shell scripts would have # format, etc.
If a file format cannot accept any comments (rare) then this should be noted in a discussion of the RAT output in the vote message.

The release artifacts are available at : http://people.apache.org/~shanti/olio_0.1It would be helpful to have a pointer to the SVN tag.SVN : https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/olio/tags/release-0.1/Each source and binary package has a MD5 and a Signature.Only tar.gz packages provided. Normally zip is provided as well.I can create zip files - didn't realize that it was a requirement.MD5 hashes are OK, but cannot check sigs as key does not appear to beuploaded to a server. Can you provide a link to the KEYS file in SVN?I have now uploaded the KEYS file to http://people.apache.org/~shanti/olio_0.1.The output of RAT is included in *-rat-output.txt.Cannot read these: You don't have permission to access /~shanti/olio_0.1/apache-olio-php-0.1.rat-output.txt onthis server.You don't have permission to access /~shanti/olio_0.1/apache-olio-rails-0.1.rat-output.txt onthis server.Fixed permissions.The NOTICE file in the archives does not follow the standard: http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html#noticeI shall fix this.
