If we're not even ready for an alpha, then I don't want to push too  
much. We can wait until things stabilize a bit more.

This should be amended to include the Apache license. And to  
generate .tar.gz artifacts. And sign the artifacts. And post the RAT http://code.google.com/p/arat/ 
  output.

Nothing wrong with posting nightly builds on your individual area of  
Apache. Of course, there are more artifacts needed for a release than  
you've got posted on your nightly area. Look at other projects to see  
details, but generally the file naming convention needs to be looked  
at, and include signatures on all artifacts, consider having tar.gz  
format in addition to zip format.

So the report might just indicate that we're starting to practice  
making Apache releases.
