Hi Nick,

Congratulations on the 3.0-FINAL release.
After such a long time its really good to have it out and it seems to work well.

Anyhow, I am very sorry to report that the POM still has a little problem.
Even though it did not occure when I checked the RC4 I could now reproduce it.
Seems I did not invest enough time to check since I am busy in multiple other
projects in my little spare time. Anyways I feel a little ashamed since
the problem is a general violation of the POM-spec that I should have noticed
especially because it was reported in your cited bug issue:
http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=39977

The logo tag is invalid in the organisation section. You need to remove it.

I have seen that the POM is not included in the binary distribution and
the only problem is here:
http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/poi/poi/3.0-FINAL/poi-3.0-FINAL.pom

I have added a comment here:
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MEV-479

Hope they gonna fix this soon. I will do my best to push this toppic...

BTW did you notice this one:
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MEV-478

Regards
  Jörg
