Hi, Rajith, Let me say thanks aswell for stepping forward but just to let you know being the release manager is more than just cutting an a few RCs.
The incubator has a guide which is not yet complete but a good starting read: http://incubator.apache.org/guides/releasemanagement.html In addition to this though I would say that the M2 branch has to much development on it to release just now. I would suggest that we need to set a cut off point for development. Of course having marked what defects are to be included in M2. Then re-branch for RC cutting and merging any resulting defects.

Hi Rajith, Thanks ! I think we need to create a list of tasks for M2, as we did for M1. I suspect there's a lot of cleaning up to be done before we can create RCs ? We also need licenses etc all updated. A quick checlist for user docs on the non-Java side is probably worthwhile (as this is their first release) ...
