This depends on how active the tree is at the time.

svngit cpcheckout  -mb "Creating wave-0.3-release branch" \
            https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/wave/trunk \
            https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/wave/branches/wave-0.3-5-release

Then check out this branch, to do any release work needed.

...

Ensure that all new source files have the Apache License attached, and any dependencies licenses are correctly noted in NOTICE.

Run the license audit tool and inspect the output:

Code Block
ant audit-licenses


Check export status of any cryptographic dependencies. (Unknown currently whether we need an ECCN or not) 

Set version number in file

...

Build the release artefacts

The preferred way

Simply running

Code Block
 ant release 

...

  1. 'ant dist' works from the unpacked source archives
  2. Jar manifests contain LICENSE and NOTICE
  3. Jar manifests have the following properties:
Code Block

Specification-Vendor
Specification-Title
Specification-Version
Implementation-Vendor
Implementation-Title
Implementation-Version

...

I suggest using the following git log, to produce a one-line-per-change list of all commits.
(An alternative, would be to use the JIRA id's - but not everything goes through Jira (notably most of my stuff doesn't! (tongue)))

Code Block

git log --pretty=medium

Put this the 'Full log' section.
I suggest hand-writing the 'Summary since X' at the start of the file.

Make the RC

There are two ways to create the artefacts. The preferred way is to use the artefacts created by Jenkins.

Download zip with all artefacts from https://

...

builds.apache.org/

job/wave-artifacts/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/*zip*/archive.zip

Code Block
wget 0.3-release \
            https://svnbuilds.apache.org/reposview/asfS-Z/incubatorview/waveWave/tagsjob/wave-0.3-rc1

Make the RC

artifacts/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/*zip*/archive.zip
 unzip archive.zip

 

Or, create the artefacts manually. Make sure to run the unit tests first. Run

Code Block
 ant release 

.
Check that the produced code still works! Check that source packages don't include any binaries.
Sign the release using your GPG key, and record SHA512 checksums for the files. (See my script at https://people.apache.org/~al/artefact-sign.sh).

Code Block
languagebash
titleSign artefacts
#!/bin/zsh
#Assumes it is being run in the folder with artefacts.

PRE="apache-wave-"
for f in $PRE*; do
gpg --armor --output $f.asc --detach-sig $f
gpg --print-md SHA512 $f > $f.sha
done


Upload the src+bin tar+zip somewhere so that it can be found.
The release candidate should be uploaded to the "dev" folder first to allow inspection and voting.
Either put in your space at

Code Block
languagebash
titleCommit new rc
svn checkout  https://

...

dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/wave/

Create a new folder under ~name/, or make a folder and host in https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/wave for the new release candidate and copy there the signed artefacts and then commit.

Vote for release

Send a vote mail for RC

...

Whilst Wave is still an incubating project, send a VOTE email to general@incubator.apache.org to get PMC votes. Handle in the same way as the internal vote.

Publish

TODOTo publish copy the artefacts into dist/incubator/wave from the dist/dev/incubator/wave/ (delete old artefacts if needed, they were automatically archived already) and commit.
