An pointer to the svn location for your proposed release would be helpful. I choose http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/rat/main/tags/apache-rat-project-0.6/ for the following review.

Afraid I'm -1, at the moment. Here are the problems that I see:

The NOTICE file does not contain a copyright statement. See 
http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html#notice

apache-rat-core/src/main/java/org/apache/rat/analysis/license/ W3CDocLicense.java contains an old-style apache src license header

I was not able to build because of a build dependency problem:

[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] BUILD FAILURE
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] A required plugin was not found: Plugin could not be found - check that the goal name is correct: Unable to download the artifact from any repository

Try downloading the file manually from the project website.

Then, install it using the command:
mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=org.apache.rat - DartifactId=apache-rat-plugin -Dversion=0.6 -Dpackaging=maven-plugin - Dfile=/path/to/file

Alternatively, if you host your own repository you can deploy the file there: mvn deploy:deploy-file -DgroupId=org.apache.rat - DartifactId=apache-rat-plugin -Dversion=0.6 -Dpackaging=maven-plugin - Dfile=/path/to/file -Durl=[url] -DrepositoryId=[id]


  org.apache.rat:apache-rat-plugin:maven-plugin:0.6

  org.apache.rat:apache-rat-plugin:maven-plugin:0.6

Hi,

I have prepared a staging repository for 0.6, which you can view on

   https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/rat-4fdaf205188c41/

Compared to Roberts previous rc1, I have mainly changed documentation
and license issues (seems we never used RAT to check the RAT sources
... ;-)

Please cast your vote:
