I just updated the release process document for MCF, because uploading to
people.apache.org has now changed to require a public/private key pair.  So
you will need to generate that too, and make sure your
people.apache.orglogin supports login by private key.  I've included
the link in the wiki
page.

Thanks,
Karl
