That's the normal release process for any project AFAIK, if you want to put a release candidate out to on https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/ that is done via svn, we've automated those steps.
Then the actual release goes to https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/, same for Maven https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/maven/ After that, the files are mirrored all over by various servers. Publishing to Maven Central is a separate process but critical since that is what most builds (Maven, Ant Ivy, and so on) expect and use.
