That's a good point. The board decided a long time ago that @author tags were deprecated in code; partly because they get out of date, but mainly because the ASF is a community, and code is a co-operative effort. Seems to me the "Brought to you" sentence has similar problems, and should be removed. [There are other ways to attribute contributions, e.g. on a page that lists committers, in the Maven POM (if used) etc.] Also I think (almost?) all other TLPs include the ASF feather which links back to the main ASF page. > I also looked at where I thought the release should be published [2] and it > contains no files.

[2] Yes and no - [2] is where RCs can be uploaded for voting; actual releases are published from [2a], e.g. by moving them from [2].
