Great to hear that you're ready to "crack off" a release. You need to
decide:
Is this a final release or some early access or beta thing?
What tools will you use to create the release artifacts?
Will you release binaries or just sources (most Java projects
release both
binary and source).
Who is going to be the release manager?
I'll take this. Assuming Les is fine it, I'll be the release manager.
This is a 1.0.0 GA release. We are going to release with Maven using
the staged release process so we'll have some time to test the final
artifact before its being released publicly and while it's being vote
upon. If we find blockers, we'll abandon the release and do a new
point release - 1.0.1 etc. until the staged release is accepted. While
I haven't cut any Apache releases before, I'm fairly familiar with
Tapestry's releases which use the same process and I've done staged
releases with Maven/Nexus before.
Kalle,
Since you will be the release manager, make sure that you add your key
to the KEYS file:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/shiro/KEYS

Alan
