Hi Brian, Shawn,

the directory/Forest/Ldap API dev guide page are pretty accurate, when it comes to cut a release.

The steps are:
- do a dry run
- deploy a snapshot
- prepare the release
- perform it
- build the site (and javadoc)
- sign the packages (you'll need a GPG key, and it needs to be present in the https://people.apache.org/keys/committer/ file - and I think it's already there) - copy the packages on https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/directory/scimple - the directory has to be created)
- close the staging repo on nexus
- start a vote.

When the vote is ok with 3 +1 binding votes:

- release the staging repo on nexus
- deploy the javadoc
- update the site (CMS -> config.toml for the version, source/scimple/news.md for the annoucement, source/scimple/download.md and a few others)
- update the apache reporter
- announce the release to the world

I think the part that needs some love is the CMS part, and I can help.

If you like, we can have a quick life convo together so that I give you some clues about what needs to be done, its pretty tedious. Just let me know!

I've been working on getting SCIMple in release shape, but I've hit a few snags

Mostly small things, or process related issues.
For example, there is an issue with generating the javadoc for the Spring 
module because both the Spring dependencies and Glassfish have a split package: 
org.aopalliance

Do we have release process guide, it looks like 
https://directory.apache.org/apacheds/developer-guide.html might be a little 
out of date (references to svn, ssh site deployment, etc), but I'm assuming we 
want the process for SCIMple to be the same.

The bits on maven and building the site are still accurate. What has changed is 
the website and javadoc posting.

It’s actually gotten much easier now that we’re using the HUGO CMS system.

There is a project, directory-site, that is where its artifacts are stored.

I maintain the fortress releases, and keep notes locally to follow.

Not too far off of what’s published here:

https://directory.apache.org/fortress/developer-guide.html

I can update that doc, but if we have something more current (for any of the 
sub-projects) let me know!



Again, anything specific to Hugo is not published that I know of.

It’s repo: https://github.com/apache/directory-site

Can easily deploy into a staging env but one is not maintained currently for 
us. Changes to the repo publish automatically to the prod site in about 15 
minutes or so.

If I have a bunch of changes, I’ll setup a test env to work on them.  We could 
do this with scimple, throw it on a vm.

I have an ansible script for it:

https://gitlab.symas.net/symas-public/ansible-apache-fortress/-/tree/master/ansible/roles/hugo?ref_type=heads

Pretty straight forward. Just needs to be documented better.

Happy to help.

In the past couple weeks I added checks for Apache RAT (license header 
checking), PMD, SpotBugs/FindSecBugs, and found a few things with each.

My plan is to release a 1.0.0-M1 as soon as I can make it through a dry run of 
the release process.

If you have suggestions/comments about anything mentioned above please let me 
know!

-Brian
