This can be done also by multiple people, who upload to different
subdirs here:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/openoffice/

I'll expand a bit more: this is done through SVN commit. This page http://www.apache.org/dev/release-publishing has up-to-date information, and it's likely Patricia already stumbled upon it.

If you need a more precise estimate, the upload of artifacts took about 48 hours; the upload of the same artifacts to SourceForge took about 2 hours. I hope (and kind of assume) that the ASF servers performance is now better.

Additionally, as the files are rsync'd up to SourceForge, they start
getting
pushed out to SourceForge's mirrors which can take some time too.  You
can click
the "i" icon for a file to see how many mirrors it is on so far.

In the 4.1.2 case I was quite surprised in positive since the files were immediately available for download. Then I don't recall now if I activated (with instructions from Marcus) the flag for "staging" it, but it was discussed back at the time.

Let me add that Infra provided good support for 4.1.2, especially for
RC1 when
we needed some significant configuration changes to accommodate our
RC. These
changes are now permanent.

Let me also add that that a major breakthrough there was that I was able to sit with Infra during ApacheCon and explore multiple solutions. Seeing the little interest in attending ApacheCon now, I think we can't rely on an ApacheCon sprint now. Though, I think no changes are needed at the moment.

Regards,
  Andrea.
