    Merge Airflow and Backport Packages preparation instructions (#11310)
    
    This commit extracts common parts of Apache Airflow package
    preparation and Backport Packages preparation.
    
    Common parts were extracted as prerequisites, the release process
    has been put in chronological order, some details about preparing
    backport packages have been moved to a separate README.md
    in the Backport Packages to not confuse release instructions
    with tool instructions.

+# Backport packages
+
+# What the backport packages are
+
+The Backport Provider packages are packages (per provider) that make it 
possible to easily use Hooks,
+Operators, Sensors, and Secrets from the 2.0 version of Airflow in the 1.10.* 
series.
+
+The release manager prepares backport packages separately from the main 
Airflow Release, using
+`breeze` commands and accompanying scripts. This document provides an overview 
of the command line tools
+needed to prepare backport packages.
+
+# Content of the release notes
+
+Each of the backport packages contains Release notes in the form of the 
README.md file that is
+automatically generated from history of the changes and code of the provider.
+
+The script generates all the necessary information:
+
+* summary of requirements for each backport package
+* list of dependencies (including extras to install them) when package
+  depends on other providers packages
+* table of new hooks/operators/sensors/protocols/secrets
+* table of moved hooks/operators/sensors/protocols/secrets with the
+  information where they were moved from
+* changelog of all the changes to the provider package. This will be
+  automatically updated with an incremental changelog whenever we decide to
+  release separate packages.
+
+The script generates two types of files:
+
+* PROVIDERS_CHANGES_YYYY.MM.DD.md which keeps information about changes 
(commits) in a particular
+  version of the provider package. The file for latest release gets updated 
when you iterate with
+  the same new date/version, but it never changes automatically for already 
released packages.
+  This way - just before the final release, you can manually correct the 
changes file if you
+  want to remove some changes from the file.
+
+* README.md which is regenerated every time you run the script (unless there 
are no changes since
+  the last time you generated the release notes
+
+Note that our CI system builds the release notes for backport packages 
automatically with every build and
+current date - this way you might be sure the automated generation of the 
release notes continues to
+work. You can also preview the generated readme files (by downloading 
artifacts from GitHub Actions).
+The script does not modify the README and CHANGES files if there is no change 
in the repo for that provider.
+
+
+## Generating release notes
+
+When you want to prepare release notes for a package, you need to run:
+
+```
+./breeze prepare-backport-readme [YYYY.MM.DD] <PACKAGE_ID> ...
+```
+
+
+* YYYY.MM.DD - is the CALVER version of the package to prepare. Note that this 
date cannot be earlier
+  than the already released version (the script will fail if it will be). It 
can be set in the future
+  anticipating the future release date. If you do not specify date, the date 
will be taken from the last
+  generated readme - the last generated CHANGES file will be updated.
+
+* <PACKAGE_ID> is usually directory in the `airflow/providers` folder (for 
example `google` but in several
+  cases, it might be one level deeper separated with `.` for example 
`apache.hive`
+
+You can run the script with multiple package names if you want to prepare 
several packages at the same time.
+Before you specify a new version, the last released version is update in case 
you have any bug fixes
+merged in the master recently, they will be automatically taken into account.
+
+Typically, the first time you run release before release, you run it with 
target release.date:
+
+```
+./breeze prepare-backport-readme 2020.05.20 google
+```
+
+Then while you iterate with merges and release candidates you update the 
release date without providing
+the date (to update the existing release notes)
+
+```
+./breeze prepare-backport-readme google
+```
+
+
+Whenever you are satisfied with the release notes generated you can commit 
generated changes/new files
+to the repository.
+
+## Preparing backport packages
+
+As part of preparation to Airflow 2.0 we decided to prepare backport of 
providers package that will be
+possible to install in the Airflow 1.10.*, Python 3.6+ environment.
+Some of those packages will be soon (after testing) officially released via 
PyPi, but you can build and
+prepare such packages on your own easily.
+
+You build those packages in the breeze environment, so you do not have to 
worry about common environment.
+
+Note that readme release notes have to be generated first, so that the package 
preparation script reads
+the latest version from the latest version of release notes prepared.
+
+* The provider package ids PACKAGE_ID are subdirectories in the ``providers`` 
directory. Sometimes they
+are one level deeper (`apache/hive` folder for example, in which case 
PACKAGE_ID uses "." to separate
+the folders (for example Apache Hive's PACKAGE_ID is `apache.hive` ). You can 
see the list of all available
+providers by running:
+
+```bash
+./breeze prepare-backport-packages -- --help
+```
+
+The examples below show how you can build selected packages, but you can also 
build all packages by
+omitting the package ids altogether.
+
+* To build the release candidate packages for SVN Apache upload run the 
following command:
+
+```bash
+./breeze prepare-backport-packages --version-suffix-for-svn=rc1 [PACKAGE_ID] 
...
+```
+
+for example:
+
+```bash
+./breeze prepare-backport-packages --version-suffix-for-svn=rc1 http ...
+```
+
+* To build the release candidate packages for PyPI upload run the following 
command:
+
+```bash
+./breeze prepare-backport-packages --version-suffix-for-pypi=rc1 [PACKAGE_ID] 
...
+```
+
+for example:
+
+```bash
+./breeze prepare-backport-packages --version-suffix-for-pypi=rc1 http ...
+```
+
+
+* To build the final release packages run the following command:
+
+```bash
+./breeze prepare-backport-packages [PACKAGE_ID] ...
+```
+for example:
+
+```bash
+./breeze prepare-backport-packages http ...
+```
+
+* For each package, this creates a wheel package and source distribution 
package in your `dist` folder with
+  names following the patterns:
+
+  * 
`apache_airflow_backport_providers_<PROVIDER>_YYYY.[M]M.[D]D[suffix]-py3-none-any.whl`
+  * 
`apache-airflow-backport-providers-<PROVIDER>-YYYY.[M]M.[D]D[suffix].tar.gz`
+
+Note! Even if we always use the two-digit month and day when generating the 
readme files,
+the version in PyPI does not contain the leading 0s in version name - 
therefore the artifacts generated
+also do not container the leading 0s.
+
+* You can install the .whl packages with `pip install <PACKAGE_FILE>`

-# Development Tools
+# Apache Airflow source releases
 
-## Airflow release signing tool
+The Apache Airflow releases are one of the two types:
 
-The release signing tool can be used to create the SHA512/MD5 and ASC files 
that required for Apache releases.
+* Releases of the Apache Airflow package
+* Releases of the Backport Providers Packages
 
-### Execution
+## Apache Airflow Package
 
-To create a release tarball execute following command from Airflow's root.
+This package contains sources that allow the user building fully-functional 
Apache Airflow 2.0 package.
+They contain sources for:
 
-```bash
-python setup.py compile_assets sdist --formats=gztar
-```
-
-*Note: `compile_assets` command build the frontend assets (JS and CSS) files 
for the
-Web UI using webpack and yarn. Please make sure you have `yarn` installed on 
your local machine globally.
-Details on how to install `yarn` can be found in CONTRIBUTING.rst file.*
+ * "apache-airflow" python package that installs "airflow" Python package and 
includes
+   all the assets required to release the webserver UI coming with Apache 
Airflow
+ * Dockerfile and corresponding scripts that build and use an official 
DockerImage
+ * Breeze development environment that helps with building images and testing 
locally
+   apache airflow built from sources
 
-After that navigate to relative directory i.e., `cd dist` and sign the release 
files.
+In the future (Airflow 2.0) this package will be split into separate "core" 
and "providers" packages that
+will be distributed separately, following the mechanisms introduced in 
Backport Package Providers. We also
+plan to release the official Helm Chart sources that will allow the user to 
install Apache Airflow
+via helm 3.0 chart in a distributed fashion.
 
-```bash
-../dev/sign.sh <the_created_tar_ball.tar.gz
-```
+The Source releases are the only "official" Apache Software Foundation 
releases, and they are distributed
+via [Official Apache Download sources](https://downloads.apache.org/)
 
-Signing files will be created in the same directory.
+Following source releases Apache Airflow release manager also distributes 
convenience packages:
 
+* PyPI packages released via https://pypi.org/project/apache-airflow/
+* Docker Images released via 
https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/apache/airflow
 
-# Verifying the release candidate by PMCs (legal)
+Those convenience packages are not "official releases" of Apache Airflow, but 
the users who
+cannot or do not want to build the packages themselves can use them as a 
convenient way of installing
+Apache Airflow, however they are not considered as "official source releases". 
You can read more
+details about it in the [ASF Release 
Policy](http://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html).
 
-## PMC voting
+This document describes the process of releasing both - official source 
packages and convenience
+packages for Apache Airflow packages.
 
-The PMCs should verify the releases in order to make sure the release is 
following the
-[Apache Legal Release Policy](http://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html).
+## Backport Provider packages
 
-At least 3 (+1) votes should be recorded in accordance to
-[Votes on Package 
Releases](https://www.apache.org/foundation/voting.html#ReleaseVotes)
+The Backport Provider packages are packages (per provider) that make it 
possible to easily use Hooks,
+Operators, Sensors, and Secrets from the 2.0 version of Airflow in the 1.10.* 
series.
 
-The legal checks include:
+Once you release the packages, you can simply install them with:
 
-* checking if the packages are present in the right dist folder on svn
-* verifying if all the sources have correct licences
-* verifying if release manager signed the releases with the right key
-* verifying if all the checksums are valid for the release
+```
+pip install apache-airflow-backport-providers-<PROVIDER>[<EXTRAS>]
+```
 
-## SVN check
+Where `<PROVIDER>` is the provider id and `<EXTRAS>` are optional extra 
packages to install.
+You can find the provider packages dependencies and extras in the README.md 
files in each provider
+package (in `airflow/providers/<PROVIDER>` folder) as well as in the PyPI 
installation page.
 
-The files should be present in the sub-folder of
-[Airflow dist](https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/airflow/)
+Backport providers are a great way to migrate your DAGs to Airflow-2.0 
compatible DAGs. You can
+switch to the new Airflow-2.0 packages in your DAGs, long before you attempt 
to migrate
+airflow to 2.0 line.
 
-The following files should be present (9 files):
+The sources released in SVN allow to build all the provider packages by the 
user, following the
+instructions and scripts provided. Those are also "official_source releases" 
as described in the
+[ASF Release Policy](http://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html) and they 
are available
+via [Official Apache Download 
sources](https://downloads.apache.org/airflow/backport-providers/).
 
-* -bin-tar.gz + .asc + .sha512
-* -source.tar.gz + .asc + .sha512
-* -.whl + .asc + .sha512
+There are also 50+ convenience packages released as 
"apache-airflow-backport-providers" separately in
+PyPI. You can find them all by [PyPI 
query](https://pypi.org/search/?q=apache-airflow-backport-providers)
 
-As a PMC you should be able to clone the SVN repository:
+The document describes the process of releasing both - official source 
packages and convenience
+packages for Backport Provider Packages.
 
-```bash
-svn co https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/airflow
-```
+# Prerequisites for the release manager preparing the release
 
-Or update it if you already checked it out:
+The person acting as release manager has to fulfill certain pre-requisites. 
More details and FAQs are
+available in the [ASF Release 
Policy](http://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html) but here some important
+pre-requisites are listed below. Note that release manager does not have to be 
a PMC - it is enough
+to be committer to assume the release manager role, but there are final steps 
in the process (uploading
+final releases to SVN) that can only be done by PMC member. If needed, the 
release manager
+can ask PMC to perform that final step of release.
 
-```bash
-svn update .
-```
+## Upload Public keys to id.apache.org
 
-## Verifying the licences
+Make sure your public key is on id.apache.org and in KEYS. You will need to 
sign the release artifacts
+with your pgp key. After you have created a key, make sure you:
 
-This can be done with the Apache RAT tool.
+- Add your GPG pub key to 
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/airflow/KEYS , follow the 
instructions at the top of that file. Upload your GPG public key to 
https://pgp.mit.edu
+- Add your key fingerprint to https://id.apache.org/ (login with your apache 
credentials, paste your fingerprint into the pgp fingerprint field and hit 
save).
 
-* Download the latest jar from https://creadur.apache.org/rat/download_rat.cgi 
(unpack the sources,
-  the jar is inside)
-* Unpack the -source.tar.gz to a folder
-* Enter the folder and run the check (point to the place where you extracted 
the .jar)
+```shell script
+# Create PGP Key
+gpg --gen-key
 
-```bash
-java -jar ../../apache-rat-0.13/apache-rat-0.13.jar -E .rat-excludes -d .
-```
+# Checkout ASF dist repo
+svn checkout https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/airflow
+cd airflow
 
-## Verifying the signatures
 
-Make sure you have the key of person signed imported in your GPG. You can find 
the valid keys in
-[KEYS](https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/airflow/KEYS).
+# Add your GPG pub key to KEYS file. Replace "Kaxil Naik" with your name
+(gpg --list-sigs "Kaxil Naik" && gpg --armor --export "Kaxil Naik" ) >> KEYS
 
-You can import the whole KEYS file:
 
-```bash
-gpg --import KEYS
+# Commit the changes
+svn commit -m "Add PGP keys of Airflow developers"
 ```
 
-You can also import the keys individually from a keyserver. The below one uses 
Kaxil's key and
-retrieves it from the default GPG keyserver
-[OpenPGP.org](https://keys.openpgp.org):
-
-```bash
-gpg --receive-keys 12717556040EEF2EEAF1B9C275FCCD0A25FA0E4B
-```
+See this for more detail on creating keys and what is required for signing 
releases.
 
-You should choose to import the key when asked.
+http://www.apache.org/dev/release-signing.html#basic-facts
 
-Note that by being default, the OpenPGP server tends to be overloaded often 
and might respond with
-errors or timeouts. Many of the release managers also uploaded their keys to 
the
-[GNUPG.net](https://keys.gnupg.net) keyserver, and you can retrieve it from 
there.
+## Configure PyPI uploads
 
-```bash
-gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --receive-keys 
12717556040EEF2EEAF1B9C275FCCD0A25FA0E4B
-```
+In order to not reveal your password in plain text, it's best if you create 
and configure API Upload tokens.
+You can add and copy the tokens here:
 
-Once you have the keys, the signatures can be verified by running this:
+* [Test PyPI](https://test.pypi.org/manage/account/token/)
+* [Prod PyPI](https://pypi.org/manage/account/token/)
 
-```bash
-for i in *.asc
-do
-   echo "Checking $i"; gpg --verify `basename $i .sha512 `

+You should choose to import the key when asked.
 
-- Set proper permissions for the pypirc file:
-`$ chmod 600 ~/.pypirc`
+Note that by being default, the OpenPGP server tends to be overloaded often 
and might respond with
+errors or timeouts. Many of the release managers also uploaded their keys to 
the
+[GNUPG.net](https://keys.gnupg.net) keyserver, and you can retrieve it from 
there.
 
-- Confirm that airflow/version.py is set properly.
+```shell script

12717556040EEF2EEAF1B9C275FCCD0A25FA0E4B
+```
+
+Once you have the keys, the signatures can be verified by running this:
+
+```shell script
+for i in *.asc
+do
+   echo "Checking $i"; gpg --verify `basename $i .sha512 `
+done
+```
+
+This should produce results similar to the below. The "Good signature from

+# Backport Provider Packages
+
+You can read more about the command line tools used to generate backport 
packages in
+[Backport Providers README](../backport_packages/README.md).
+
+## Decide when to release
+
+You can release backport packages separately on an ad-hoc basis, whenever we 
find that a given provider needs
+to be released - due to new features or due to bug fixes. You can release each 
backport package
+separately.
+
+We are using the [CALVER](https://calver.org/) versioning scheme for the 
backport packages. We also have an
+automated way to prepare and build the packages, so it should be very easy to 
release the packages often and
+separately.
+
+## Prepare the Backport Provider Packages RC
+
+### Generate release notes
+
+Prepare release notes for all the packages you plan to release. Where 
YYYY.MM.DD is the CALVER
+date for the packages.
+
+```
+./breeze prepare-backport-readme YYYY.MM.DD [packages]
+```
+
+If you iterate with merges and release candidates you can update the release 
date without providing
+the date (to update the existing release notes)
+
+```
+./breeze prepare-backport-readme google
+```
+
+Generated readme files should be eventually committed to the repository.
+
+### Build an RC release for SVN apache upload
+
+The Release Candidate artifacts we vote upon should be the exact ones we vote 
against, without any
+modification than renaming i.e. the contents of the files must be the same 
between voted
+release candidate and final release. Because of this the version in the built 
artifacts
+that will become the official Apache releases must not include the rcN suffix. 
They also need
+to be signed and have checksum files. You can generate the checksum/signature 
files by running
+the "dev/sign.sh" script (assuming you have the right PGP key set-up for 
signing). The script
+generates corresponding .asc and .sha512 files for each file to sign.
+
+#### Build and sign the source and convenience packages
+
+* Set environment variables (version and root of airflow repo)
+
+```shell script
+export VERSION=2020.5.20rc2
+export AIRFLOW_REPO_ROOT=$(pwd)
+
+```
+
+* Build the source package:
+
+```
+./backport_packages/build_source_package.sh
+
+```
+
+It will generate `apache-airflow-backport-providers-${VERSION}-source.tar.gz`
+
+* Generate the packages - since we are preparing packages for SVN repo, we 
should use the right switch. Note
+  that this will clean up dist folder before generating the packages, so it 
will only contain the packages
+  you intended to build.
+
+```shell script
+./breeze prepare-backport-packages --version-suffix-for-svn rc1
+```
+
+if you ony build few packages, run:
+
+```shell script
+./breeze prepare-backport-packages --version-suffix-for-svn rc1 PACKAGE 
PACKAGE ....
+```
+
+* Move the source tarball to dist folder
+
+```shell script
+mv apache-airflow-backport-providers-${VERSION}-source.tar.gz dist
+```
+
+* Sign all your packages
+
+```shell script
+pushd dist
+../dev/sign.sh *
+popd
+```
+
+* Push tags to Apache repository (assuming that you have apache remote 
pointing to apache/airflow repo)]
+
+```shell script
+git push apache backport-providers-${VERSION}
+```
+
+#### Commit the source packages to Apache SVN repo
+
+* Push the artifacts to ASF dev dist repo
+
+```shell script
+# First clone the repo if you do not have it
+svn checkout https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/airflow airflow-dev
+
+# update the repo in case you have it already
+cd airflow-dev
+svn update
+
+# Create a new folder for the release.
+cd airflow-dev/backport-providers
+svn mkdir ${VERSION}
+
+# Move the artifacts to svn folder
+mv ${AIRFLOW_REPO_ROOT}/dist/* ${VERSION}/
+
+# Add and commit
+svn add ${VERSION}/*
+svn commit -m "Add artifacts for Airflow ${VERSION}"
+
+cd ${AIRFLOW_REPO_ROOT}
+```
+
+Verify that the files are available at
+[backport-providers](https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/airflow/backport-providers/)
+
+### Publish the RC convenience package to PyPI
+
+In order to publish to PyPI you just need to build and release packages. The 
packages should however
+contain the rcN suffix in the version name as well, so you need to use 
`--version-suffix-for-pypi` switch
+to prepare those packages. Note that these are different packages than the 
ones used for SVN upload
+though they should be generated from the same sources.
+
+* Generate the packages with the right RC version (specify the version suffix 
with PyPI switch). Note that
+this will clean up dist folder before generating the packages, so you will 
only have the right packages there.
+
+```shell script
+./breeze prepare-backport-packages --version-suffix-for-pypi rc1
+```
+
+if you ony build few packages, run:
+
+```shell script
+./breeze prepare-backport-packages --version-suffix-for-pypi rc1 PACKAGE 
PACKAGE ....
+```
+
+* Verify the artifacts that would be uploaded:
+
+```shell script
+twine check dist/*
+```
+
+* Upload the package to PyPi's test environment:
+
+```shell script
+twine upload -r pypitest dist/*
+```
+
+* Verify that the test packages look good by downloading it and installing 
them into a virtual environment.
+Twine prints the package links as output - separately for each package.
+
+* Upload the package to PyPi's production environment:
+
+```shell script
+twine upload -r pypi dist/*
+```
+
+* Copy the list of links to the uploaded packages - they will be useful in 
preparing VOTE email.
+
+* Again, confirm that the packages are available under the links printed.
+
+## Vote and verify the Backport Providers release candidate
+
+### Prepare voting email for Backport Providers release candidate
+
+Make sure the packages are in 
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/airflow/backport-providers/
+
+Send out a vote to the [email protected] mailing list. Here you can 
prepare text of the
+email using the ${VERSION} variable you already set in the command line.
+
+subject:
+
+
+```shell script
+cat <<EOF
+[VOTE] Airflow Backport Providers ${VERSION}
+EOF
+```
+
+```shell script
+cat <<EOF
+Hey all,
+
+I have cut Airflow Backport Providers ${VERSION}. This email is calling a vote 
on the release,
+which will last for 72 hours - which means that it will end on $(date -d '+3 
days').
+
+Consider this my (binding) +1.
+
+Airflow Backport Providers ${VERSION} are available at:
+https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/airflow/backport-providers/${VERSION}/
+
+*apache-airflow-backport-providers-${VERSION}-source.tar.gz* is a source 
release that comes
+ with INSTALL instructions.
+
+*apache-airflow-backport-providers-<PROVIDER>-${VERSION}-bin.tar.gz* are the 
binary
+ Python "sdist" release.
+
+The test procedure for PMCs and Contributors who would like to test the RC 
candidates are described in
+https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/master/dev/README.md#vote-and-verify-the-backport-providers-release-candidate
+
+
+Public keys are available at:
+https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/airflow/KEYS
+
+Please vote accordingly:
+
+[ ] +1 approve
+[ ] +0 no opinion
+[ ] -1 disapprove with the reason
+
+
+Only votes from PMC members are binding, but members of the community are
+encouraged to test the release and vote with "(non-binding)".
+
+Please note that the version number excludes the 'rcX' string, so it's now
+simply ${VERSION%rc?}. This will allow us to rename the artifact without 
modifying
+the artifact checksums when we actually release.
+
+Each of the packages contains detailed changelog. Here is the list of links to
+the released packages and changelogs:
+
+TODO: Paste the result of twine upload
+
+Cheers,
+<TODO: Your Name>
+
+EOF
+```
+
+Due to the nature of backport packages, not all packages have to be released 
as convenience
+packages in the final release. During the voting process
+the voting PMCs might decide to exclude certain packages from the release if 
some critical
+problems have been found in some packages.
+
+Please modify the message above accordingly to clearly exclude those packages.
+
+### Verify the release
+
+#### SVN check
+
+The files should be present in the sub-folder of
+[Airflow 
dist](https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/airflow/backport-providers/)
+
+The following files should be present (9 files):
+
+* -source.tar.gz + .asc + .sha512 (one set of files)
+* -bin-tar.gz + .asc + .sha512 (one set of files per provider)
+* -.whl + .asc + .sha512 (one set of files per provider)
+
+As a PMC you should be able to clone the SVN repository:
+
+```shell script
+svn co https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/airflow/
+```
+
+Or update it if you already checked it out:
+
+```shell script
+svn update .
+```
+
+#### Verify the licences
+
+This can be done with the Apache RAT tool.
+
+* Download the latest jar from https://creadur.apache.org/rat/download_rat.cgi 
(unpack the sources,
+  the jar is inside)
+* Unpack the -source.tar.gz to a folder
+* Enter the folder and run the check (point to the place where you extracted 
the .jar)
+
+```shell script
+java -jar ../../apache-rat-0.13/apache-rat-0.13.jar -E .rat-excludes -d .
+```
+
+#### Verify the signatures
+
+Make sure you have the key of person signed imported in your GPG. You can find 
the valid keys in
+[KEYS](https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/airflow/KEYS).
+
+You can import the whole KEYS file:
+
+```shell script
+gpg --import KEYS
+```
+
+You can also import the keys individually from a keyserver. The below one uses 
Kaxil's key and
+retrieves it from the default GPG keyserver
+[OpenPGP.org](https://keys.openpgp.org):
+
+```shell script
+gpg --receive-keys 12717556040EEF2EEAF1B9C275FCCD0A25FA0E4B
+```
+
+You should choose to import the key when asked.
+
+Note that by being default, the OpenPGP server tends to be overloaded often 
and might respond with
+errors or timeouts. Many of the release managers also uploaded their keys to 
the
+[GNUPG.net](https://keys.gnupg.net) keyserver, and you can retrieve it from 
there.
+
+```shell script
+gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --receive-keys 
12717556040EEF2EEAF1B9C275FCCD0A25FA0E4B
+```
+
+Once you have the keys, the signatures can be verified by running this:
+
+```shell script
+for i in *.asc
+do
+   echo "Checking $i"; gpg --verify `basename $i .sha512 `
+done
+```
+
+This should produce results similar to the below. The "Good signature from 
..." is indication
+that the signatures are correct. Do not worry about the "not certified with a 
trusted signature"
+warning. Most of the certificates used by release managers are self signed, 
that's why you get this
+warning. By importing the server in the previous step and importing it via ID 
from
+[KEYS](https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/airflow/KEYS) page, you know 
that
+this is a valid Key already.

+for i in *.sha512
+do
+    echo "Checking $i"; gpg --print-md SHA512 `basename $i .sha512 ` | diff -

+```
+
+You should get output similar to:

+```

+Checking apache_airflow-1.10.12rc4-py2.py3-none-any.whl.sha512
+Checking apache-airflow-1.10.12rc4-source.tar.gz.sha512
+```
+
+### Verify if the Backport Packages release candidates "work" by Contributors
+
+This can be done (and we encourage to) by any of the Contributors. In fact, 
it's best if the
+actual users of Apache Airflow test it in their own staging/test 
installations. Each release candidate
+is available on PyPI apart from SVN packages, so everyone should be able to 
install
+the release candidate version of Airflow via simply (<VERSION> is 1.10.12 for 
example, and <X> is
+release candidate number 1,2,3,....).
+
+You have to make sure you have ariflow 1.10.* (the version you want to install 
providers with).
+
+```shell script
+pip install apache-airflow-backport-providers-<provider>==<VERSION>rc<X>
+```
+Optionally it can be followed with constraints
+
+```shell script
+pip install apache-airflow-backport-providers-<provider>==<VERSION>rc<X> \
+  --constraint 
"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/apache/airflow/constraints-<VERSION>/constraints-3.6.txt"`
+```
+
+Note that the constraints contain python version that you are installing it 
with.
+
+You can use any of the installation methods you prefer (you can even install 
it via the binary wheels
+downloaded from the SVN).
+
+There is also an easy way of installation with Breeze if you have the latest 
sources of Apache Airflow.
+Here is a typical scenario.
+
+First copy all the provider packages .whl files to the `dist` folder.
+
+```shell script
+./breeze start-airflow --install-airflow-version <VERSION>rc<X> \
+    --python 3.7 --backend postgres --instal-wheels
+```
+
+For 1.10 releases you can also use `--no-rbac-ui` flag disable RBAC UI of 
Airflow:
+
+```shell script
+./breeze start-airflow --install-airflow-version <VERSION>rc<X> \
+    --python 3.7 --backend postgres --install-wheels --no-rbac-ui
+```
+
+Once you install and run Airflow, you should perform any verification you see 
as necessary to check
+that the Airflow works as you expected.
+
+
+## Publish the final releases of backport packages
+
+### Summarize the voting for the Backport Providers Release
+
+Once the vote has been passed, you will need to send a result vote to 
[email protected]:
+
+Subject:
+```shell script

+EOF
+```
+
+Body:
+
+```shell script

follow shortly.
+
+Cheers,
+<TODO: Your Name>
+
+EOF
+
+```
+
+### Publish release to SVN
+
+The best way of doing this is to svn cp  between the two repos (this avoids 
having to upload the binaries
+again, and gives a clearer history in the svn commit logs.
+
+We also need to archive older releases before copying the new ones
+[Release 
policy](http://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html#when-to-archive)
+
+```shell script
+# Set the variables
+export VERSION_RC=2020.5.20rc2
+export VERSION=${VERSION_RC/rc?/}
+
+# Set AIRFLOW_REPO_ROOT to the path of your git repo
+export AIRFLOW_REPO_ROOT=$(pwd)
+
+# Go to the directory where you have checked out the dev svn release
+# And go to the sub-folder with RC candidates
+cd "<ROOT_OF_YOUR_DEV_REPO>/backport-providers/${VERSION_RC}"
+export SOURCE_DIR=$(pwd)
+
+# Go the folder where you have checked out the release repo
+# Clone it if it's not done yet
+svn checkout https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/airflow airflow-release
+
+# Update to latest version
+svn update
+
+# Create backport-providers folder if it does not exist
+# All latest releases are kept in this one folder without version sub-folder
+mkdir -pv backport-providers
+cd backport-providers
+
+# Move the artifacts to svn folder & remove the rc postfix
+for file in ${SOURCE_DIR}/*${VERSION_RC}*
+do
+  base_file=$(basename ${file})
+  svn cp "${file}" "${base_file/${VERSION_RC}/${VERSION}}"
+done
+
+
+# If some packages have been excluded, remove them now
+# Check the packages
+ls *<provider>*
+# Remove them
+svn rm *<provider>*
+
+# Check which old packages will be removed (you need python 3.6+)
+python ${AIRFLOW_REPO_ROOT}/backport_packages/remove_old_releases.py \
+    --directory .
+
+# Remove those packages
+python ${AIRFLOW_REPO_ROOT}/backport_packages/remove_old_releases.py \
+    --directory . --execute
+
+
+# Commit to SVN
+svn commit -m "Release Airflow Backport Providers ${VERSION} from 
${VERSION_RC}"
+```
+
+Verify that the packages appear in
+[backport-providers](https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/airflow/backport-providers)
+
+### Publish the final version convenience package to PyPI
+
+Checkout the RC Version:
+
+```shell script
+git checkout backport-providers-${VERSION_RC}
+```
+
+Tag and push the final version (providing that your apache remote is named 
'apache'):
+
+```shell script
+git tag backport-providers-${VERSION}
+git push apache backport-providers-${VERSION}
+```
+
+In order to publish to PyPI you just need to build and release packages.
+
+* Generate the packages.
+
+```shell script
+./breeze prepare-backport-packages
+```
+
+if you ony build few packages, run:
+
+```shell script
+./breeze prepare-backport-packages
+```
+
+In case you decided to remove some of the packages. Remove them from dist 
folder now:
+
+```shell script
+ls dist/*<provider>*
+rm dist/*<provider>*
+```
+
+
+* Verify the artifacts that would be uploaded:
+
+```shell script
+twine check dist/*
+```
+
+* Upload the package to PyPi's test environment:
+
+```shell script
+twine upload -r pypitest dist/*
+```
+
+* Verify that the test packages look good by downloading it and installing 
them into a virtual environment.
+Twine prints the package links as output - separately for each package.
+
+* Upload the package to PyPi's production environment:
+
+```shell script
+twine upload -r pypi dist/*
+```
