Thanks, Wim.

We’re using repositories on GitHub and gerrit isn't available for those AFAIK. 
But even then, we don't want to review only the code, but also final binary 
artifacts and documentation before a release.

Thanks,
Ondro Mihályi

Hi Ondrej,

Can’t you use Gerrit for that workflow?

Best regards,

Wim

Subject: [incubation] Release process: Staging area and artifact review before 
final artifacts are released

Hi,

Within the MicroProfile project, we are about to do the first release within 
the Eclipse Foundation. None of the committers has experience from other 
projects within Eclipse but some of us have experience with the release process 
within the Apache Foundation.

In particular, we'd like to be able to release final artifacts in 2 stages:
 - "review" stage, where all artifacts are built and published for reviewers 
together with the source code revision used to build the artifacts
 - "go public" stage, which follows after reviewers accept the artifacts and 
agree to publish the release

This workflow is supported within the Apache Fnd using the special feature of 
Nexus, which can create a temporary repository just for a specific group of 
deployed artifacts, project committers can access this repository via the web 
interface and have the ability to press a button to accept the artifacts and 
deploy them to the main repository, removing the temporary staging repository. 
It really just adds an additional step before artifacts are released to the 
main repository.

Is anyone using a similar workflow with an Eclipse project? Can Eclipse 
webmasters investigate if we can use the ability of Nexus to create temporary 
staging repositories to support this workflow?

Cheers,
Ondrej
