I did and bravely published a page to help future Committers (by which I mean people who can commit directly into the Apache repo, and certainly can do releases too). It's mostly to help in technical things, such as it describes how to make a FreeMarker release. But there's some project policies there too. Please take look, tell me what to change, what to add:
