There's no need to do this!
We'd keep the two codebases separate, and probably release at different
times. (XMLBeans hardly ever, except when we find bugs) All that would
happen is that we'd swap the group ID, add POI to the release names, and
update the readme etc to refer to POI as the PMC providing the oversight
So, assuming we're releasing it as POI rather than getting it out of the
attic:
* Copy xmlbeans trunk in svn to
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/poi/xmlbeans/trunk
* Merge in the fixes
* Update the bin/src packages to have poi in them, eg
xmlbeans-poi-2.6.5-bin.zip
* Update the poms to be under org.apache.poi rather than xmlbeans
* Test, vote, release!
Or, if we want to take xmlbeans out of the attic, we'd do:
* Vote to take it on
* Wait for attic PMC to confirm
* Get infra to unlock svn for xmlbeans
* Merge in fixes
* Test, vote, release!
