I made a bit of headway revising releasemanagement.html a few months back, but got stuck eventually. Ideally, that page would not exist, as all of its content would be rolled into the www.apache.org/dev material on releasing. However, I've found myself reluctant to touch the dev release documentation because it's been polished over several years and though the organization sometimes seems haphazard, some of the line-by-line material has been carefully crafted and I don't want to mess it up. It's weird that our top-level dev release documentation is an FAQ. It seems like there ought to be a policy document at the top, akin to http://incubator.apache.org/incubation/Incubation_Policy.html and frozen in time, wich would provide a step-by-step guide containing all the mandatory steps (and ONLY the mandatory steps), then point at various project release recipes as sample implementations.
