Another quick comment. If you're using Nexus staging we don't need
to
increment 1.0.x. You can just drop the staging repository and form
a new,

Well, that's a possibility in marginal cases depending on what went
wrong but the tag's created already at that point.
Good point. How about cutting a branch, say branches/1.0 and the
release manager, RM, has total control over it, i.e. nothing gets
added there w/out his explicit permission. The RM can cut a tag,
create a staging repo, then start a vote. If the vote fails he
deletes both the tag and staging repo. IIUC, deleting the tag is
kosher so long has it has not been blessed by the PMC by a release
vote. (Craig, do you concur?)
