------------------------------------------------------------------
According to Apache rules:
http://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html#release-approval before VOTE +1
every PMC need to check checksums and signatures
It is extremely hard for Wicket :(
Using sha256sum will improve the process a lot.
Maven can be used to create signatures
GPG - maven-gpg-plugin
sha256 - net.nicoulaj.maven.plugins:checksum-maven-plugin (with
shasumSummaryFile option)

> Key: WICKET-6074
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-6074
> Project: Wicket
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: release
> Affects Versions: 6.21.0, 7.2.0
> Reporter: Martin Grigorov
> Assignee: Martijn Dashorst
>
> See the discussion at dev@ about checking the release:
> http://markmail.org/message/yu2f64rndmncseyd
> There are few issues:
> 1) It seems sha1sum is used. It will be better to use SHA 256+
> from release.sh:
> gpg --print-md SHA1 target/dist/apache-wicket-$version.tar.gz >
> target/dist/apache-wicket-$version.tar.gz.sha
> 2) Drop .md5 ?!
> "man md5sum" says:
> BUGS
> The MD5 algorithm should not be used any more for security related
> purposes. Instead, better use an SHA-2 algorithm, implemented in the
> programs sha224sum(1), sha256sum(1), sha384sum(1),
> sha512sum(1)
> 3) use "sha256sum" instead of "gpg --print-md SHA1" to create the file to
> make it simpler for checking later with "sha256sum -c"
