Hey Matt, Github actually constructs the tarball for us using git archive (for every tag, for that matter). We don't explicitly push any tarball to github. The reason why we pull the tarball from github directly is that we ship a .gitattributes to define what gets put in the tarball. (we don't ship the site for instance). This was just easier to describe than to walk through using git archive. I don't think it's hurting anything necessarily, but I might be wrong.
Regarding Step 7, that can be made explicit, but the link is part of the VOTE template. Regarding maintenance releases, 1 and 2 may be skipped for a maintenance release, but the rest really should be followed. It's a release and must abide by apache requirements, I think. Maybe the mentors could chime in, though. Regarding Security break-fix, I'm not sure. Perhaps the mentors can chime in?
