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

• Distributions - You will need to commit the distributions into the special svn distribution area: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/cxf
  when the commit done there, after you commit 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

The download page of a currently released version will tell you the precise files you need to upload. Basically, the -src.tar.gz, -src.zip, tar.gz, .zip files, and the .md5, .sha1, and .asc signature files of each of those. For greatest accuracy, it's best to download the files from Nexus and use those. (For example, for CXF 2.6.2, you would check this folder).

• Update the download page - around 24 hours after committing the distributions, update the download page, release notes, etc. .. to point at the new versions. At that stage you'll want to delete (svn rm) the previous version of each branch you uploaded to https://dist.apache.org^{Image Added}, so if you added https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/cxf/2.6.3^{Image Added} and https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/cxf/2.5.6^{Image Added}, you'll want to remove https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/cxf/2.6.2^{Image Added} and https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/cxf/2.5.5^{Image Added}. (Older versions will still be available at http://archive.apache.org/dist/cxf/^{Image Added} and are referenced from there on the CXF download page.)

• Unpack the javadocs from the appropriate cxf-bundle-VERSION-javadocs.jar into the appropriate directory in an svn checkout of https://svn-master.apache.org/repos/infra/websites/production/cxf/content/javadoc and commit the new version. Make sure any new files are added.
