+## Pre-Reqs
+
+ 1. Read [the OODT Release
Process](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OODT/Release+Process).
It's got plenty of tips and tricks and helps you get your environment set up
and all your Apache bits configured.
+ 2. Make sure you have [set your useful DRAT environment
variables](https://github.com/apache/drat/wiki/Installation#useful-environment-variables)
+ 3. Make sure you have Maven, GPG and Java installed.
+
+## Begin Release
+
+ 1. from the DRAT top level directory, make sure the version is set
appropriately for all the Maven modules. Youc an use the [mvn:versions plugin
here](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5726291/updating-version-numbers-of-modules-in-a-multi-module-maven-project).
For example, `mvn versions:set -DnewVersion=1.1-SNAPSHOT` if you are about to
release 1.1.
+ 2. `mvn release:prepare` (and make sure that the tag looks like
`release-X.Y` when you set it and the other versions look right. E.g., for 1.1,
make sure the SCM tag is `release-1.1`)
+ 3. `mvn release:perform`
+
+## Send Email
+
+ 1. Use the Apache OODT template from its release guide.
+
+That's it!
