Personally, I prefer to branch before the release (that way we can change the POM versions and get a real release build to vote on). And, as mentioned in my other email, I find it very useful to have real release binaries to vote on, in addition to the code (which is obviously our ultimate release). I also think we should look into using Nexus and staging (for the next release, this one is already overdue) to slim down the procedure even more. /niklas
