Hi, I checked many projects on [1], few projects put the readme file separated with the source-release file. I think the Apache release guideline does not require that.
I agree that an easy-touched README file helps the community (especially who are not familiar with the project) knowing the project and know what is new (by reading release_note file) and begin to check the release. So, it should be optional, I think. (Actually IMO, I think uploading the file to [1] when release is a better choice.)
