The release plugin can be used for preparing the release - It would change our 
pom's to the next version & then creates a tag with a release version.

mvn release:prepare -Dfull,release,deploy

Then we can perform the release by running,

mvn release:perform - would perform the release.

It is better to use a altDeploymentRepository & then sign the releases. Then we 
can call for the votes & release them...

I had to comment out the gpg-plugin in our pom before starting the release 
process. There is a problem using it to sign our release. This part needs to be 
manual.

Balaji,

Can you refresh my memory of the maven release plugin?  What exactly  
does it do to our SVN repo and our projects POMs?


Regards,
Alan
