Hello

I *believe* we're finally ready to do a release.  The first thing we must
get released is the nar-maven-plugin.  This is because we need to depend on
this for the full build.  This is an artifact which should hopefully be
released very rarely.

Unfortunately I made the mistake of pushing the tag for 0.0.1 to git/origin
which immediately got to github.  So whatever...moving on to 0.0.2.

I plan to soon send out the e-mail found in the body of the release guide
here:

http://nifi.incubator.apache.org/development/release-guide.html

Please review the release guide and see if it seems reasonable.  Please
feel free to make changes directly.  I know the formatting isn't awesome
but I'm done wrestling with markdown for now.

Specifically please pay attention to the draft PPMC [VOTE] block in the
release guide.  I'll be sending exactly that so perhaps before i send out a
bad vote we can iterate on that to practice.

We need PPMC members to attempt to pull the source artifact down, validate
hashes, signatures, build from the sources, ensure all looks good.  So
please give it a shot and let's discuss.  Then I'll send out a vote
e-mail.  To the rest of the community please do feel free to give it a shot
and provide feedback as well.

We do need to get through this first one soon so we can get to the real
deal NiFi release which is when things should start getting really fun.

Huge thanks to Benson for kicking some release obstacles out of the way and
shining a light towards where we need to be.

Thanks!
Joe
