Hi Henry,

All my changes are pushed to the git repository. I don't exactly understand
what you mean by "we need to change the SCM for getting the right source".
Is it that we are pointing to a wrong location.

Regarding the mvn and git staging repo could you please raise a JIRA to the
Infra as i don't know the exact process. It would be good if you also share
how it should be done so we can do it ourselves next time.

@Mentors, please review the codebase and provide comments if we still miss
anything. In case you feel all is good do reply +1 for Go Hit the mvn
release:prepare and perform.

@Arvind, thanks for reminding will make a wiki page explaining the special
steps needed to get the release of MetaModel.

Regards
Ankit
