So, any "process of voting" etc is an Apache detail. Does "Dist" require two VOTES to release a file? If it doesn't, I do not believe there should be a second vote.
Now, packaging, Signing etc are another issue. Before you insert content into the java-repository, it is wise to set it up in a staging area (your home directory), get all your signatures and md5's in place show it to the group for a quick concensus (or just a second set of eye's). Java-Repository is mirrored across all the Apache Mirrors, as such its important to minimize errors so that we don't get Fragged to death on the Mirrors list... ;-)

hi mark
is the procedure that a second VOTE is need to place the jars for a release into the repository or does a positive release VOTE entitle the jars to be distributed through the repository?

java-repository is rsynced to ibiblio.org/maven every four hours, its the only way we maintain authority over who releases apache projects. So if you place your jars there for testing, your going to find them at ibiblio too.

Call me lazy, but it would make things easier if the new jars were copied to www.apache.org/dist/java-repository
whenever a release occurs. This way I could just change a few characters in my project.xml and test
out the new code instantly, without worrying about manually downloading jars and copying files around.
Make sense?
