Rat exclusions are fine if they comply with policy and don’t hide things. I’ve 
reviewed and voted on 300+ releases on the IPMC list so perhaps I have some 
advice to give that you should listen to. You can of course choose to ignore it.

Some of the issues I’ve brought up are minor and can be fixed in later releases 
and some IMO are not and are not in line with ASF licensing or release policy. 
I suggest you try are fix those.

That would be a good way forward. As I said said previously your mentors can 
vote +1 on this release - my vote is not a veto. I would be totally fine if you 
got  3 +1 votes from other IPMC members and my vote is the only -1.That’s how 
Apache works.

Thanks,
Justin
