OK. Let's do so then :) Halfway looking forward to it ;)
great :)
it's not difficult but it's a bit nerve racking since you've got to get it right first time. it's best to get used to the technology before you need it. the best place to start is by browsing the wiki page http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?ReleaseManager and following the links.
you'll need to be able to post emails which have the from header set to your committer (apache.org) address. you should also make sure that your .forward file is correctly set (so that you receive emails posted to your apache.org account).
you also need an openGPG compatible code signing key. (if you don't have one installed already) you'll need a compatible signing tool. i use (and recommend) gnu privacy guard (http://www.gnupg.org).
you'll also need an md5 calculation program. if you have a *nix flavour (or cygwin) you should be able to use either md5sum or openssl.
you'll also need to make sure that you apache.org account has the right default permissions set - it's important that everything you upload is group writable.
this is probably enough to be getting on with :)
let me know if you need any more instructions for any of the above. (i might need to know your preferred platform to give detailed isntructions.)
