Source files: src.tar.gz == src.zip MD5s match Signatures good Key in ASF web of trust All the source files have linux line-endings. I think this is a side-effect of building on linux rather than Windows and has been this way for the last few releases. There is a patch proposed to fix this but I don't view this as a show stopper. There is also a difference between the tag and the source files. The diff is: --- D:/repos/asf/public/tomcat/tc6.0.x/tags/TOMCAT_6_0_21/build.properties.default Tue Dec 22 17:10:53 2009 +++ D:/tmp/apache-tomcat-6.0.21-src-zip/apache-tomcat-6.0.21-src/build.properties.default Tue Dec 22 17:31:18 2009 @@ -44,7 +44,7 @@ compile.debug=true base-commons.loc=http://archive.apache.org/dist/commons -base-tomcat.loc=http://archive.apache.org/dist/tomcat +base-tomcat.loc=http://people.apache.org/~jfclere/ base-sf.loc=http://downloads.sourceforge.net # ----- Commons Logging, version 1.1 or later ----- I assume this was done to include the desired windows binaries. However, this means that anyone trying to build from the src distro will be pulling the Windows binaries from the wrong place. The correct way to do this would have been to create a build.properties file and override the base-tomcat.loc setting in that file. The tag is correct, the source bundles just need re-building from the tag. Binaries: apache-tomcat-6.0.21.zip.md5 is broken. If lists multiple files but the MD5 is only correct for the first file in the list. The root cause is a copy and paster error in the build file (patch already proposed to fix it). Applying this fix would mean a re-tag. However, I'd be happy with manually fixing the generated MD5s to fix this to save the re-tag. Servlet TCK passes JSP TCK passes - 1 failure This one, however, can't be ignored. Remy hinted at it early today. The fix for bug 47453 created a regression in that the constraint expressed in JSP.2.3.4 namely that <quote>A String literal can be provided, as long as the return type of the deferred method signature is not void</quote> is not enforced. This needs to be fixed for 6.0.21 and will, therefore, require a re-tag. I am starting to look at this now. Since we are going to have to re-tag anyway, it would be good if the patches required to fix the various niggles above were applied before the tag.
