Hi, In the 'Creating an Apache Release' section of the graduation guide [1], I am a little confused by the statements of 'cut a release', 'publish a release' and 'create a release'. What's the difference between them? I really know what this section means generally, but when I tried to translate I met difficult. I thought these three statements are equal previous, but I'm not sure now.
> Podlings do not need to actually *publish *a release to demonstrate that they understand how to accomplish such a feat. However, creating a release that is approved by the incubator project management committee is usually the simplest way to do this. What does the highlight *publish* imply? Anyway, I get 'create a release' is better. > If you are going to cut a release (which is highly recommended), then please read the Incubator Release Management Guide for hints, tips and guidelines for cutting a release that will get approved by the IPMC without problems. Why recommend 'cut a release' this time instead of 'create a release'? I am trying to translate this guide to local language, it's very appreciate if anyone could help.
