+    The Apache Software Foundation provides support for the Apache community of open-source software projects.
+    The Apache projects are characterized by a collaborative, consensus based development process, an open and
+    pragmatic software license, and a desire to create high quality software that leads the way in its field.
+    We consider ourselves not simply a group of projects sharing a server, but rather a community of developers
+    and users.

+  <description>
+    The Apache Software Foundation provides support for the Apache community of open-source software projects.
+    The Apache projects are characterized by a collaborative, consensus based development process, an open and
+    pragmatic software license, and a desire to create high quality software that leads the way in its field.
+    We consider ourselves not simply a group of projects sharing a server, but rather a community of developers
+    and users.

+          Clirr needs to be more flexble before we can force this everywhere. New releases that don't have previous artifacts to compare cause Clirr to blow up. And Clirr needs to be smart enough to only look at the previous release artifact so we can make this work during snapshot builds, otherwise it just blows up when you try to do a release.
