Release notes without dates

Hi everyone,

I just noted that the release notes (e.g. [0]) and download page [1] do not contain the dates of the releases.
I think that would be a useful metadata.

[1] http://jackrabbit.apache.org/downloads.html

Cheers,
Alex

AW: Release notes without dates

Not the same topic but i also found that we do not have the dtd files of 2.4.0 release on http://jackrabbit.apache.org/dtd/
In that release a new dtd file was introduced ...

should I open a jira issue ?

Good point, we should upload the DTD.

Yes, or just upload the file yourself. See
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jackrabbit/site/trunk/content/dtd/.

The release notes are prepared already before the release candidate is
cut, and modifying them afterwards would be a bit tricky.

But adding release dates to the downloads page would certainly be a
good idea. So far we've only had them on the front page as a part of
the news feed.

Ok, I just did so. See [1], not sure when the site [2] will be updated.
