Thanks, Francis. The most important step is to come up with a release vote email with the same items as [1]: release notes, git commit, artifacts to be voted on in dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev <http://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev>, md5 and sha256 hashes. (The staged maven repository does not apply.)
Per apache policy, the release needs to be signed by a PMC member. I’ll be happy to do that. Or we could skip signing for the first couple of RCs. Maybe write a shell script that creates the files, and a “howto” that the next RM can follow? I’ll be able to run the script when it’s time to create signed artifacts.
