Rick Hillegas updated DERBY-4855:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: derby-4855-03-aa-cgiTemplate.diff

Attaching derby-4855-03-aa-cgiTemplate.diff. This patch introduces a template 
cgi script for creating download pages. Committed at
subversion revision 1034474.

Currently, the release instructions say that you should create a cgi script for 
the new release by copying the cgi script from an old release. This patch 
formalizes the notion of a template script, making it possible to automate the 
creation of the new script.

Touches the following files:

----------

A      src/documentation/content/xdocs/releases/release-template.cgi

The new template script.

----------

M      build/site/releases/release-10.6.2.1.cgi

This is the built version of the 10.6.2.1 cgi script. It turns up checked-out 
in my website client. I think this is just a line-ending issue. The original 
script was probably produced on a Windows box.

> Right now, producing a Derby release involves 3 major chunks of work:
> 1) Producing the release notes (happens the week before the first release 
> candidate is produced)
> 2) Producing release candidates (and submitting them to community vote)
> 3) Publishing the release distributions (after the community approves a 
> candidate)
> This JIRA organizes work needed to automate the tasks which are part of step 
> (3). Those steps are described here:
