Thanks for pushing on this.  We definitely should do a release soon.

I agree that what's in master now should be pretty stable.  Maybe we
should do a quick scrub to see if there are any more open LICENSE or
NOTICE issues remaining in JIRA.

If you want to RM (release manager), Stack put up some notes here, based
on the last few releases:
http://htrace.incubator.apache.org/building.html .  It's generated from
the markdown file at ./src/main/site/markdown/building.md (probably
should be renamed to release.md...)
Also, I think the process changed so that we're now checking source
tarballs into svn, rather than doing the rsync like it says there.

best,
Colin
