+Subject: [ANNOUNCE] Apache Airflow Java SDK <VERSION> Released
+
+Dear Airflow community,
+
+I'm happy to announce that Apache Airflow Java SDK <VERSION> was just released.
+
+The signed source release can be downloaded from:
+https://downloads.apache.org/airflow/java-sdk/<VERSION>/
+
+We also published the convenience binaries to Maven Central, under group id
+org.apache.airflow. Import airflow-sdk-bom:<VERSION> to keep the module
versions
+aligned.
+
+The API documentation is available at:
+https://airflow.apache.org/docs/java-sdk/<VERSION>/
+
+<Optional: one or two lines on notable changes; omit for the first release.>
+
+Thanks to everyone who contributed to and tested this release.
+
+Cheers,
+<your name>
+```
+
+Pre-send checklist:
+
+* The Maven Central sync has completed (the BOM resolves for a fresh consumer)
+ and the docs URL above resolves.
+* Fill or delete the optional changes line.
+* Run `grep '<' email.txt` on the rendered email and confirm **no output** --
+ any match means a placeholder (`<VERSION>`, `<your name>`, ...) was left
+ unfilled.
-5. Update the download page and wait ~1 hour after promoting so Central has
- synced. Send the `[ANNOUNCE]` email.
