According to https://www.apache.org/foundation/glossary.html, a
"release" is "a package offered to the general public by The Apache
Software Foundation". By adding the artifact to the public mirrors
(which is what you do when you commit the files to the dist SVN), you
are releasing. So, in my opinion, the date should be the date you
uploaded the file to the dist SVN, regardless of when you announce or
upload your website, because that's the date you are offering the file
to the general public.
