Subject: [Classpathx-crypto] release 1.0.0 remaining todos

hello there,

i went though the generated javadocs, and after fixing some minor html
tags in few classes that were causing emission of javadoc warnings, i
believe the library is ready for its birthday release.

unless somebody else notes otherwise, we are ready for the release.

since i also started using jdk 1.4 (j2sdk1.4.0_01 and j2sdk1.4.1) i
noticed that more javadoc warnings are emitted unless a "-breakiterator"
option is included in the command line of the javadoc tool (thru ANT 1.5
but this is secondary).  i refactored the "docs" ant task and added some
testes to invoke the javadoc tool with appropriate options depending on
the jdk used to run the ant tool.

i also tagged both the sources and the web pages in the cvs trees with
tha tag "ver_1_0_0".

the 3 remaining questions/tasks before the release are:

1. draft the announcement text and decide where to publish it,
2. move the deliverables to a download location,
3. decide on an incantation to cover export control sensitivities.

re. #1, i'll send later a draft of the announcement text for comments.

re. #2, the home page refers to <ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/classpathx>
where there's already a crypto-build-demo.tar.gz that i believe Nic put
there while working on the Makefile process.  2 questions:

q1. should we use this location or a "crypto" subdirectory underneath to
mirror the web pages organisation?
q2. how can i upload files to the agreed location?

re. #3, i propose replacing:

"You can download..."

which is the first paragraph of the "Downloads" section, to

"Provided you are legally allowed, you can download..."

comments?

cheers;
rsn

mozilla.
