If you are the person responsible for doing these steps, who double checks
your work?  Or reviews?  Is there such a person?  Should that be called out?

You can look at a pull request for a previous build to see how this is
done. METRON-533 - Up the version for release DONE

enough votes close the vote by replying [RESULT][VOTE] to the email thread

> Creation of the Maintenance Release should follow exactly the same set of
steps as creating the Feature Release as outlined above, but with two
exception. First, the version incremented on the maintenance release should
be the MR++ so that the release is named 0.[FR].[MR++]. Second, if a
critical JIRA comes in that requires an immediate patch we may forego steps
2-5 and immediately cut the MR release. A critical JIRA is something that
is either a security vulnerability or a functional show stopper .
> Ensuring Consistency between Feature and Maintenance releases
> Being able to maintain the previous release train, with only critical or
important bug fixes and security fixes (generally not new features) for
users who are averse to frequent large changes is very important for
production use. They get stability, while the feature code proceeds as fast
as the community wishes. It is important to assure that all commits to the
maintenance release also get made in the feature branch (if relevant), to
avoid the appearance of regressions in the maintenance branch. The formal
process for assuring this is as follows:
> Every maintenance release JIRA should have a corresponding feature JIRA
to make sure that the patch is applied consistently to both branches. The
maintenance JIRA should be cloned and appropriate fix version for the
feature release should be applied. If the fix is not relevant to the
feature or maintenance branch then the submitter must explicitly state
this. In general reviewers should refuse a patch PR unless both feature and
maintenance JIRAs have been created.
> The release manager has a responsibility to review all commits to the
maintenance line since last release, and make sure they were duplicated to
the feature branch (unless not relevant, which must also be determined).
