The NOTICE file in uimaj-2.2.1-incubating-bin.zip refers to the
contributions from IBM:
"Software Grant License Agreement", informally known as the
"IBM UIMA License Agreement".
however, that license is not in LICENSE, nor is it linked from there.
this wording was approved in their first release -- iirc there were
discussions about what specifically to put there [1] and I had a minor
hand in that since they had borrowed wording from derby [2].
I'm not objecting to the wording in the NOTICE file.
However, since it refers to another license, I think that needs to be
present in the LICENSE file:
http://www.apache.org/dev/release.html#distributing-code-under-several-licenses
The software grant license agreement to which it refers is this :
http://www.apache.org/licenses/software-grant.txt
I assumed that when outside entities file software grants they always
use the software-grant.txt form (or CCLA addendum B in
cla-corporate.txt), but I'm probably wrong about that.
For this release, I don't think anything needs to be done. Perhaps a
broader issue is how apache projects as a whole should reference the
code drops that come in via a software grant -- or if it's even
necessary to do so since the original copyright is in the NOTICE file.
Perhaps that's sufficient?

There are some problems with the MD5 and SHA1 files.
For example, uimaj-2.2.1-incubating-bin.tar.bz2.md5:
================
uimaj-2.2.1-incubating-bin.tar.bz2: 53 20 6A FB 75 1F 07 9D BB 12 82 58 D0 7D
CA 4B
================
The hash is spread over two lines and into hex pairs. The normal
format is either:
53206afb751f079dbb128258d07dca4b
or
53206afb751f079dbb128258d07dca4b *uimaj-2.2.1-incubating-bin.tar.bz2
The SHA1 checksums have the same problem.
The PGP signatures are OK, however the format of the existing MD5/SHA1
files means that most (all?) checking programs will have difficulty
verifying the checksums.
I think these problems need to be corrected before release (if
necessary by editting the files)

I reviewed the rat reports, checked the asc signatures, did a cursory
review of DISCLAIMER, NOTICE, and LICENSE files in a couple of the src
and bin files, and it all looks good to me.
+1
btw, the way you provide the rat reports up front is *very* helpful.
