Yes, After I cut the tag and checked it out the build.sh script was not working. So I just typed in the maven commands to build it. However, the email I copied from the 1.3 release references that script. I just checked in updated version of build.sh into the 1.4 branch. This contains the exact command I execute to build the dist tar. Getting the jars into the mvn repo was tricky. Eric did this loosely following these instructions : http://www.apache.org/dev/publishing-maven-artifacts.html However, our poms are not ready for running the release targets. The deploy target should have been sufficient to put the jars in the repo, but it would not sign. So the following command was run and this did sign. This command is not from the documentation above. mvn deploy -Papache-release Keith
