+## Gather Release Notes From Jira
+
+First [manage the versions][5] of River using Jira.  Make sure there is an 
appropriate release that Jira issues are have been assigned to.  You can then 
view the [Roadmap][4] screen in Jira to create the release and make sure that 
the correct Jira issues are associated to it.
+
+Move the Jira issues around appropriately, especially if you're releasing 
before all the issues have been resolves.  In this case, you need to postpone 
the remaining issues until a later release.
+
+You can then use Jira to generate the release notes.  This is done Road Map 
--> Release --> Summary --> Release Notes (next to "Filters").
+
+The release notes need to be pasted into;
+
+    river/trunk/src-doc/static/release-notes/index.html
+
+## Update Version Numbers
+
+There are version numbers in the following places that need to be updated with 
the new release number/name.
+
+  - com.sun.jini.constants.VersionConstants.java (SERVER_VERSION)
+  - river/trunk/src-doc/static/release-notes/index.html (version number)
+
+In the above HTML page, there is also a section on "changes by component" 
which should also be updated.  This should be easy to do by referring to the 
Jira-generated release notes.
