Review Comment:
   Ah, we need it mainly for major version up. We need to change version 
numbers in package name:
   `github.com/apache/arrow-go/v18` ->
   `github.com/apache/arrow-go/v19`
   
   Let's work on it as a follow-up task.

Review Comment:
   I think that the `apache` remote approach is a bit risky as I said above.

Review Comment:
   > this doesn't have to change for this PR, only when releasing, right?
   
   No.
   
   > or do we want this to be 17.0.0 and increment on the new release?
   
   No.
   
   My suggestions:
   * Don't use `-SNAPSHOT` suffix for unreleased version
     * I think that it's needless because we don't create a nightly (or 
something) package from main
     * I think that the `-SNAPSHOT` suffix name is Maven convention: 
https://maven.apache.org/maven-release/maven-release-plugin/usage/prepare-release.html
       * If we want to use `-XXX` suffix for unreleased version, other name 
such as `-dev` is better
   * We don't update this just after we release a new version
     * Because we can't know the next version (`18.0.1`? `18.1.0`? `19.0.0`?) 
just after we release a new version
   * We update this just before we release a new version, when we add a new 
compatible feature (minor version up) or when we add an incompatible change 
(major version up)

Review Comment:
   It's for testing verification script with all commits.
   If we only test verification script only when we cut a RC, we can't detect 
verification script is broken by a commit.

+# Release
+
+## Overview
+
+  1. Test the revision to be released
+  2. Increment version number in `arrow/doc.go`
+  3. Prepare RC and vote (detailed later)
+  4. Publish (detailed later)
+
+### Prepare RC and vote
+
+Run `dev/release/release_rc.sh` on working copy of 
`[email protected]:apache/arrow-go` not your fork:
+
+```console
+$ git clone [email protected]:apache/arrow-go.git
+$ dev/release/release_rc.sh ${RC}
+(Send a vote email to [email protected].
+ You can use a draft shown by release_rc.sh for the email.)
+```
+
+Here is an example to release RC1:
+
+```console
+$ GH_TOKEN=${YOUR_GITHUB_TOKEN} dev/release/release_rc.sh 1
+```
+
+The argument of `release_rc.sh` is the RC number. If RC1 has a problem, we'll 
increment the RC number such as RC2, RC3 and so on.
+
+Requirements to run `release_rc.sh`:
+
+  * You must be an Apache Arrow committer or PMC member
+  * You must prepare your PGP key for signing
+
+If you don't have a PGP key, 
https://infra.apache.org/release-signing.html#generate may be helpful.
+
+Your PGP key must be registered to the followings:
+
+  * https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/arrow/KEYS
+  * https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/arrow/KEYS
+
+See the header comment of them how to add a PGP key.
+
+Apache arrow committers can update them by Subversion client with their ASF 
account. e.g.:
+
+```console
+$ svn co https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/arrow
+$ cd arrow
+$ editor KEYS
+$ svn ci KEYS
+```
+
+### Publish
+
+We need to do the followings to publish a new release:
+
+  * Publish to apache.org
+
+Run `dev/release/release.sh` to publish to apache.org:
+
+```console
+$ GH_TOKEN=${YOUR_GITHUB_TOKEN} dev/release/release.sh ${VERSION} ${RC}
+```
+
+Here is an example to release 18.0.0 RC1:
+
+```console
+$ GH_TOKEN=${YOUR_GITHUB_TOKEN}dev/release/release.sh 18.0.0 1
+```
+
+Add the release to ASF's report database via [Apache Committee Report 
Helper](https://reporter.apache.org/addrelease.html?arrow).
+
+### Verify
+
+We have a script to verify a RC.
+
+You must install the following commands to use the script:
+
+  * `curl`
+  * `gpg`
+  * `shasum` or `sha256sum`/`sha512sum`
+  * `tar`
+
+You don't need to install Go. If Go doesn't exist in system, the latest Go is 
automatically installed only for verification.
+
+To verify a RC, run the following command line:
+
+```console
+$ dev/release/verify_rc.sh ${VERSION} ${RC}
+```
+
+Here is an example to release 18.0.0 RC1:

Review Comment:
   The `apache` remote works but I think that it's a bit risky.
   If we have the `apache` remote in our usual clone, we may push to the 
"apache" remote accidentally.
   
   FYI: I use `https://github.com/apache/arrow.git` for `apache` remote in my 
kou/arrow clone. I change it to `[email protected]:apache/arrow.git` only when I 
need to push to the `apache` remote.

+
+```console
+$ GH_TOKEN=${YOUR_GITHUB_TOKEN} dev/release/release_rc.sh 1
+```
+
+The argument of `release_rc.sh` is the RC number. If RC1 has a problem, we'll 
increment the RC number such as RC2, RC3 and so on.
+
+Requirements to run `release_rc.sh`:
+
+  * You must be an Apache Arrow committer or PMC member
+  * You must prepare your PGP key for signing
+
+If you don't have a PGP key, 
https://infra.apache.org/release-signing.html#generate may be helpful.
+
+Your PGP key must be registered to the followings:
+
+  * https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/arrow/KEYS
+  * https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/arrow/KEYS
+
+See the header comment of them how to add a PGP key.
+
+Apache arrow committers can update them by Subversion client with their ASF 
account. e.g.:
+
+```console
+$ svn co https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/arrow
+$ cd arrow
+$ editor KEYS
+$ svn ci KEYS
+```
+
+### Publish
+
+We need to do the followings to publish a new release:
+
+  * Publish to apache.org
+
+Run `dev/release/release.sh` to publish to apache.org:
+
+```console
+$ GH_TOKEN=${YOUR_GITHUB_TOKEN} dev/release/release.sh ${VERSION} ${RC}
+```
+
+Here is an example to release 18.0.0 RC1:
+
+```console
+$ GH_TOKEN=${YOUR_GITHUB_TOKEN}dev/release/release.sh 18.0.0 1
