The "UsingNexus" page has been changed by OliverHeger: http://wiki.apache.org/commons/UsingNexus?action=diff&rev1=31&rev2=32 Comment: Added section about post release cleanup. * dev@commons.apache.org * u...@commons.apache.org + === Post Release Cleanup === + The actual release task is now complete, however there are some remaining steps to do some cleanup and to prepare the next development iteration. + + * '''Remove Obsolete Releases''': Unless old versions are especially required, remove them from the dist directory. This will cause the files to also be deleted from the mirrors and save them some diskspace as well as simplifying things for users. Note that the contents of the /www/www.apache.org/dist directory is regularly copied to /www/archive.apache.org/dist and from there transferred to host archive.apache.org. Deleting files from the standard distribution directories does ''not'' delete them from the archive dist directories so users will still be able to access old files even when they are not available from the mirrors. + * '''Update JIRA''': Mark the release as released in the JIRA project admin and CLOSE all issues RESOLVED in this release. Make sure the FIX VERSION for all issues closed with this release is set correctly to this version. If this has not already been done, create a JIRA version for the next release. + * '''Update DOAP file''': Update the component's [[http://projects.apache.org/guidelines.html|DOAP]] file with details of the released version: + {{{ + <release> + <Version> + <name>x.y.z</name> + <created>yyyy-mm-dd</created> + <revision>x.y.z</revision> + </Version> + </release> + }}} + * '''Update changes.xml''': If the component uses the maven changes plugin to maintain its changelog, fill in the release date for the just released version and create a new release element for the next release. + * '''Create the relase tag''': Copy the tag of the RC whose vote succeeded to the final release tag, e.g. + {{{ + svn copy https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/commons/proper/foo/tags/FOO_1.2RC1 + https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/commons/proper/foo/tags/FOO_1.2 -m "Tagging 1.2 release" + }}} + --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
