• mkdir 0.10.0.0_RELEASE

• cd 0.10.0.0_RELEASE/

• mkdir artifactsmkdir kafka-0.10.0.0-rc0

• git clone https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/kafka.git kafka

• cd kafka

• git checkout -b 0.10.0 tags/0.10.0.0-rc0   <- important! checkout the tag, or you'll be releasing SNAPSHOT accidentally.

...

• Go to JIRA, move all unresolved jiras with "Fix versions" of 0.10.0.0 to future releases.

• Run ./release_notes.py 0.10.0.0 > ../artifactskafka-0.10.0.0-rc0/RELEASE_NOTES.html. It will fail if you have any unresolved JIRAs still in the release, listing the JIRAs that still need to be addressed. Otherwise, double check that the output in RELEASE_NOTES.html looks ok for the release

• Make sure you have gpg keys to sign the release artifacts
• Sign the artifacts:
  • cd ../artifactskafka-0.10.0.0-rc0
  • Run the following commands (you may have to specify the gpg key to use via the `-u` option if you have multiple keys):

    • for file in *.tgz; do gpg --armor --output $file.asc --detach-sig $file; done

      for file in *.tgz; do gpg --verify $file.asc $file; done

      for file in *.tgz; do gpg --print-md md5 $file > $file.md5; done

      for file in *.tgz; do gpg --print-md sha1 $file > $file.sha1; done

      for file in *.tgz; do gpg --print-md sha512 $file > $file.sha2; done

Upload all the binary artifacts, release notes, javadoc to your home.apache.org URL.

• The easiest way is to sftp (lftp is a more fully featured alternative) them over to homesftp can be used to copy the relevant files over to <apache_id>@home.apache.org/public_html using your apache id:
  • sftp <apache_id>@home.apache.org
  • mkdir public_html (this only needs to be done the first time)
  • cd public_html
  • mkdir kafka-0.10.0.0-rc0
  • put -r  artifacts/* kafka-0.10.0.0-rc0rc0 .
• If you find sftp is a bit clunky, lftp is an alternative

Upload artifacts to Maven staging repository

• Send out a voting email to users@kafka.apache.org, dev@kafka.apache.org, kafka-clients@googlegroups.com. In the email, include the git revision next to the git tag (since tag will be dropped when rolling out a new RC).
