I had meant to add but forgot to when eventually writing the mail..

Its a good idea to put all the artifacts to be mirrored into the dev
area of the dist repo at https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/ before
the vote. That makes it clearer what is/isn't going to be present in
the end and means the only action needed to release them after the
vote is a simple remote copy operation to the release area, helping
reduce scope for any mistakes and that what folks test is what gets
released.
