Richard, Thank you for the release and congrats on your 1st release.
My counterparts have reported that the sha files are in different format than the last version, but the same as 8.0.7. It would be nice if we could have a permanent standard. When we change the formats, it breaks automation on our end and in the docker images. I've not had the time to verify this for myself, I will get to that in the next couple of days. Thank you, Rod. ________________________________ From: Zowalla, Richard <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, April 22, 2022 1:37 AM To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Subject: [EXTERNAL] Follow-up to 8.0.11: Update of release documentation Hi all, after conducting my first release, I put my notes together and updated our release documentation: https://tomee.apache.org/dev/release-tomee.html It might not be complete and might require some further polishing but I think, that this will help others in conducting a release. The initial ASF-related setup + GPG keys requires some effort ;) In general, we learned that teaming up (committer + pmc) for a release works quite well and it was a pleassure to work with JL on 8.0.11 :) Most of the mechanical steps can be conducted with committer access privileges (building, tagging, nexus/maven deploy, staging artifacts to dist/dev); some formal steps like open/close the VOTE, moving the artifacts from dist/dev to dist/release require a PMC member to be involved.
