I have downloaded this release and verified the signature and md5
checksum.  The SHA checksum is a binary file and it isn't obvious to me how
to check it.  How was it produced?

I have verified that the LICENSE and NOTICE files are present and seem
well-formed.  I have verified that the DISCLAIMER is present and
well-formed.

I was unable to compile the code, apparently due to a thrift version
mismatch of some kind.  The README does not specify pre-requisites to
compilation, but simply states that [mvn package] should suffice.  It did
not suffice for me.  Here is the error message:

[ERROR] thrift failed output:
> [ERROR] thrift failed error: !!! Unrecognized option: -out
> Usage: thrift [options] file


Painful as it is to say this, I am -1 on this release unless somebody can
explain some simple process to resolve my issues.  Those issues are:

1) What format is used for the SHA checksum?  How is it expected that I
should check it?

2) What are the true pre-requisites for compilation?

I would be willing to upgrade my vote on this release if the checksum is
corrected and the README is updated for future releases (and I am told how
to compile things now).  Since the only change that I am requesting to this
release is the checksum file, it should be possible to move forward without
cutting a new release file.
