• Fix imports in all the .java files
  • Fix License headers in all files. (If you are using Intellij IDEA, "Copyright Plugin" is very handy)
  • Check NOTICE.txt, make sure any copyright headers from contributors show up there
  • Make sure each jar we ship has an entry in LICENCES.txt or equivalent (Axis2 uses a directory to store text files of each license)
  • Make sure we don't ship any snapshot jars.
  • Get yourself a PGP Key
  • Add your key to the KEYS file (example Axis2 KEYS are at /www.apache.org/dist/ws/axis2/ on mintoaur.apache.org)
  • Run Apache RAT tool to uncover issues with the release artifacts.
  • Remove Author tags in all files
  • No labels
