That would be wonderful. I'll contact you directly and figure out a time where we can chat about the release process and make sure you're all setup to do it.

I'm going to try my best to do monthly patch releases of the latest uPortal 
release. That would mean that 4.0.1 would be cut the first week in October, 
4.0.2 the first week of November, etc. For minor releases we're going to shoot 
for 6 to 12 months between releases though I'd like to lean toward the 6 month 
side of it and just try to get a minor release out after each new bit 
feature/refactoring is complete.

That said 3.x still needs maintenance. I'm going to set aside time this month to get 
patch releases out of all of the 3.x branches and potentially the 2.x export branches but 
once those are out my time for doing patch releases of 3.x branches is going to diminish. 
If anyone one is at all interested in helping out with cutting releases of any uPortal 
branch please let me know. It really isn't that hard, maven and ant do 90% of the work 
for you. Your reward would be endless appreciation from myself and all of the folks out 
there with that version of uPortal deployed! Note that these are not "forever" 
roles, in fact it makes the most sense for someone who is currently on 3.2 for example to 
help get 3.2.x releases pushed out and when they upgrade to 4.0 they would leave the 3.2 
release generation to someone else.
