 Hi fellow developers,

 Our next release date is rapidly approaching.  We've been releasing a
 version of ManifoldCF at roughly the end of every quarter for a year
 now, and March 31 is a bit over two weeks away.

 There are currently three outstanding 0.5-incubating bugs.  Two are
 Japanese localization tickets, and one is for the new Elastic Search
 connector.  The latter is unassigned.  Please finish these up as
 quickly as possible!

I'll try to work on this last issue during these days and I'll let you
know the progress commenting on JIRA ;)


 Finally, I've been the Release Manager for all four releases up until
 now.  Does anyone want to volunteer to be Release Manager for
 0.5-incubating?  I'd be happy to provide assistance and check in all
 of my Windows-based scripts.

 Karl

Hi.

I want to volunteer to be Release Manager for 0.5-incubating.
I use Mac OS, but please teach me some ways if I can work.

Regards,
Shinichiro Abe

Great, and thanks for volunteering!

The first thing to do create your key and add it to the KEYS file in
the project (if not already there), and add it to the Web of Trust.
The necessary steps are listed here:
http://www.apache.org/dev/release-signing

I urge you to follow these instructions carefully; getting this right
is the hardest part of becoming a release engineer. ;-)

The second part involves the release itself.  I have a number of
Windows scripts that are useful for releases, which I will get into
some kind of order and commit to svn.  You will probably want to
create Linux equivalents.

Please keep me informed as to how it is going.

I checked in my scripts into:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/lcf/release-scripts.

Once you read the Apache instructions, you might want to look at my
scripts to see how they fit in.  Essentially, they build the release
candidates, sign them, and upload them (hardwired to go to my account
on people.apache.org, unfortunately - which I need to fix).

Thanks,
Karl
