I don't know if there is a guide for 'release-managers' . I believe commons has one.From: David Graham [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

I agree that deprecating methods does not require a new beta. We don't guarantee backwards compatibility between betas. James, can you act as release manager for RC2? Sounds like Martin won't have time to do it.

I'd be happy to, if A) someone will grant me karma on the Jakarta web site and B) someone can walk me through the basic steps involved, as I've deferred to Martin "Release Addict" Cooper on these matters in previous releases I've managed.

What is publicly done is to create a release proposal, comitters look over it and agree those are the criteria.
I beleive the struts 1.1 beta 3, release plan is a good template.
