Just a side note: the release step (gw publishDist) is known to fail if SVN 1.9 is used (see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SVN-4666 , https://github.com/vlsi/asflike-release-environment/issues/1) I guess Milamber is using a newer version (since the previous release succeeded), however, I would suggest double-checking.
The error does not happen for me with SVN 1.12.2 though, and the next version of the release plugin implements a workaround. We can upgrade after the release. Vladimir
