I use this one [1] sans the part which does not apply to Velocity TLP to comply with ASF release requirements. If there is a documentation for the Velocity project which does not have more manual steps compared to the [1], I will happily do it, but I don't want to waste my time for unnecessary juggling. I rather invest it in making the code base better. [1] works very well for the entire Maven ecosystem and is followed by Maven devs, I don't see why I cannot apply to ther ASF Java-centric TLPs. Please note that the entire Maven Site Plugin ecosystem relies on Velocity Engine and Tools, so this is why I want to move this one forward and in greater for the entire OSS community.
