I’ll look to add the release instructions soon. There is a page in the Ref Guide that describes how to do it (it’s basically the same as javadocs, just a different ant/gradle target).
I also created a new top-level page in Solr’s Confluence for Release Notes: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/SOLR/Release+Notes. I only moved 8.x and a couple 7.x notes there for now (it’s a bit tedious to move them, but anyone would be welcome to keep going) so we can use that spot to put them from now on. I didn’t check, though, if Lucene’s Confluence has the same problem of notes being buried? Sorry to half-complete the task, I was looking for Solr's notes and got annoyed I can never find them quickly.
