We're all still talking about the release process, but in all honesty I've not done it for several years at Commons. I think it would be immensely helpful for those of us who have been at least part way through the process fairly recently (Emmanuel, Gary, others?) to present your recollections of what was difficult, so that we can have a real list of things to try and
address.


There is a mini-howto for Commons Math here:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/commons/proper/math/trunk/doc/release/release.howto.txt

The aim was to provide a fool-proof, step-by-step recipe, which the "official" Wiki documents were _not_: The missing bits were filled as a summary of my
interaction with the ML (cf. archive).
[Luc upgraded the document after the CMS change.]

Nothing is "complicated"; following the recipe should allow anyone to make a
release.
As was noted in another post:
 * several steps could be made faster with scripting
 * removing spurious files from Nexus is a pain after a few RCs

Gilles
