What are the steps to release an artifact?

[Paul Spencer]

What are the steps I should use to release an artifact?  I expect this 
will include the following:

o Update the changes file (xdocs/changes.xml)
o Build the announcement file ______________
o Update the version tags.  maven scm:prepare-release
o Deploy the site
...
Their appears to be a process used by the Maven Team, but I can not find 
 it documented.  Their is a plugin specific document "Releasing 
Plugins" page, but it appears additional steps are being performed.
