> Do we want to re-roll the 5.0.6 release or that can just go out with 5.0.7?


As Stefan says, it will get looked after.

The practice is to let new commits keep coming into 5.0.6 (jira and CHANGES) 
until the vote passes.
It is the release manager's job to create the new jira version and bump the 
build.xml.  Part of that is moving CHANGES lines into the new version, and when 
closing the 5.0.6 version in jira bumping those same jiras to 5.0.7

Having done both approaches, this is IMHO the much easier approach.  The moving 
issues back when a release vote fails is a pita (and more error-prone), taking 
into account frequency with whether votes pass or fail.  Also… this 
incentivises failing a vote and re-cutting, which should always be "the right 
thing", and also gives the opportunity to catch rogue jira tickets (which there 
often are).

It's not wide-spread knowledge/reasoning, so appreciate the question :D
