I think we should remove all SNAPSHOT references including those in
the sandbox and in plugins we are not using. This can be done by
fixing them to use the POM current version, or by removing those
modules entirely (e.g. sandbox probably does not want to be in the
release tag at all).
I think we should do a build from the branch, test it, and if it
works, then make the tag.
Agreed. Let's clean up the cruft and reduce to the minimum number of
version definitions (just etc/project.properties and project.xml for
the plugins?). We can do a build there using an explicit revision
number, then if we are happy copy that rev to the tag.
I've removed all the 'SNAPSHOT' and other hard coded versions I can
find and successfully built geronimo from rev 226951 after removing my
maven geronimo and geronimo-spec repository entries. I see dblevins
has posted source and binary tar.gzs etc but I have no idea how to
produce them from a plain maven build. I consider his publish_build.sh
script unacceptable for releases because it modifies what is checked
out from svn.
I'm going to start running tck tests on my build and hope we can
straighten out how to package stuff up later. If there are problems
tomorrow I can always start over.

IIUC aaron is fixing the release notes so I hope we can get them
finalized by tonight also.
Lets be careful this time and make sure everything is in order first.
