Releasing the artifacts

  • Maven artifacts - After the vote passes, you'll need to promote that staging repository to the main location. Login to Nexus to do that as well. See above Maven team release page.

Also, don't forget to copy the actual distributions to people.apache.org:/www/www.apache.org/dist/cxf.

Unpack the javadocs. Create a new directory in /www/cxf.apache.org/javadoc to match the version number and then unpack the cxf-bundle/$version/*-javadoc.jar from the maven repo into that new directory. Update the "latest" sym-links in the javadoc directory to point to the new directory.

...

  • Distributions - You will need to commit the distributions into the special svn distribution area: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/cxfImage Added
    when the commit done there, they will be live on dist.apache.org fairly quickly, but it will still take time for the mirrors to get copies. It's likely easier to make the directory via an svn command, check out just that directory, and then add the files. The dist area is rather large (400MB or so) so checking out the entire thing may be slow.
    Code Block
    
    svn mkdir https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/cxf/2.6.3
    svn checkout https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/cxf/2.6.3
    ....  add files to 2.6.3 .....
    svn commit
    
  • Update the download page - around 24 hours after committing the distributions, update the download page, release notes, etc... to point at the new versions.
