Here's the official answer, from the Incubator's policy page:
http://incubator.apache.org/incubation/Incubation_Policy.html#Releases
Therefore, should a Podling decide it wishes to perform a release, the
Podling SHALL hold a vote on the Podling's public -dev list. At least
three +1 votes are required (see the Apache Voting Process page). If the
majority of all votes is positive, then the Podling SHALL send a summary
of that vote to the Incubator's general list and formally request the
Incubator PMC approve such a release. Three +1 Incubator PMC votes are
required.
Our release management guide, as is often the case, duplicates information
better described elsewhere, adding inaccuracies and misleading rephrasings.
