Allen Wittenauer commented on YETUS-226:
----------------------------------------


I ran through as many of the instructions as I could.  Hopefully I didn't skip 
any. ;)  In any case, these are the things I noticed. 

* On the key signing part:
{code}
$ svn co https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/yetus yetus-dist-release
$ (gpg --list-sigs <your name> && gpg --armor --export <your name>) >> KEYS
{code}

It'd probably be good to replace "your name" with "your PGP name" or whatever 
so that people know you're referencing the name in the key list.  Also, missing 
a cd or a path to the KEYS directory is needed here so that it actually updates 
the KEYS file. 

* On the version date:
{code}
 set the release date to when you expect your next vote thread to close. This 
date will be used by our generated release notes.
{code}

The intention was always that --usetoday could be used to set the actual date 
in the release artifact without having to set it in JIRA.  Is this actually not 
feasible?

* Should this have a --use-agent flag in there?
{code}
    gpg --armor --output "${artifact}".asc --detach-sig "${artifact}"
{code}

* Awkward:
{code}
Update update master for release. You should update the docs in master for the 
new release. 
{code}

* Mark this as To Be Documented?
{code}
Publish convenience artifacts (maven, homebrew, etc).
{code}
