Hey all,

the first release is usually tough, thats right.

However we can make it - there should be some tooling how we did
releases previously.

Corners to know:

 - License must be included
 - 3rd party code must be known and name (NOTICE file) - we should be
 clear here, except we have introduced new things
 - we should have a src and a bin release (usually ASF vote on src, but
 its good practice to have both)
 - releases should be signed
 - its a good idea to have a tag for the release

All committers have access to some webspace on people.apache.org where
we can put up artifacts and vote on them. Please note that they should
be verified after uploading, and they should be verified by other
committers.

When we have them here, the release manager can call out a vote running
72h. Committers need to vote, mentors and other asf people are invited
to do so as well.

When the vote passes with at least 3x +1, we call the same vote on
incubator lists. 

When the vote passes here as well, we can roll out the release to the
dist folder.

It's not super-simple, but we can do that step-by-step.

Cheers,

Christian
