Hi All, As I don’t have access to a WIKI … here comes a step by step guide for releasing Royale with Maven:

I did a clean fork for this and updated the SCM and distributionManagement to use my github fork and my private Nexus for deployment … it worked great (After fixing 1-2 things in the ASJS repo … which weren’t found earlier as we never got this far). Also did I do a fake 0.9.8 release as my fork of the official repo had lots of relics from previous 0.9.7 release attempts. So don’t be confused ;-) The Net execution time of all steps were 1:04:36 … add a few minutes for switching branches, changing pom-versions and stuff like that … So is this the thing you folks were asking for?
