New status udate:

* I've now staged commons and rendering 3.2M2: 
https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/orgxwiki-038/
* The next step is normally for me to push the "release" action on the staged 
repo and it'll make it to central.
* However, I've had to modify the top level pom since it was missing 2 pieces 
of information: <developers> and <description>, which means what I've staged is 
not really a 3.2M2 release (it is except for the top level pom). As a 
consequence I won't release the staged repo.
* We're now ready to push the next release (3.2M3) to Maven Central when we 
release it.
* FTR here are the steps I've followed to build and stage the artifacts:

- Add the following in your settings.xml:

    <server>
      <id>sonatype-nexus-staging</id>
      <username>userid</username>
      <password>password</password>
    </server>

- Add passphrase in settings.xml or pass it on command line using 
-Dgpg.passphrase=…

      <properties>
        <gpg.passphrase>password</gpg.passphrase>
      </properties>

- in xwiki-commons and in xwiki-rendering, after having checked out the correct 
tag, run:

       mvn clean deploy -Prelease 
-DaltDeploymentRepository=sonatype-nexus-staging::default::https://oss.sonatype.org/service/local/staging/deploy/maven2
