Hi,

The Tomcat release process is partially automated.  There's a "release"
target in the main (CVS module jakarta-tomcat-5) Ant build file which
does the build, testing, and packaging of the release.  Then the release
manager signs (PGP) and checksums (MD5) the distributions, and places
them in the appropriate directories on www.apache.org.

After giving it a while (I usually do 12 hours) for the mirrors to pick
up the distros, the release manager updates the jakarta downloads page
and makes the announcement to tomcat-dev, tomcat-user, [EMAIL PROTECTED]
