Hi, In order to have mvn release function, I had to update the POM file as per PIRK-50; a PR is in the queue. There are still more items that could be added (as per https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/maven/pom/tags/apache-18/pom.xml?view=markup), but it's a basic step in the right direction (at least mvn release:prepare works now).
An additional question for getting 'mvn release:perform' to function: It appears that we need to include an additional repo in the pom for releasing in order for 'mvn release:perform' to function correctly. NiFi seems to use https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/releases. Should we do the same? I will wait to cut the release branch until we can get the POM correct for releasing (i.e. accept the PIRK-50 PR, adding in the info dictated by the answer for the question above ). Thanks, Ellison Anne
