[Lucene-java Wiki] Update of "ReleaseTodo" by GrantIngersoll

Dear Wiki user,

You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Lucene-java Wiki" for change notification.

The "ReleaseTodo" page has been changed by GrantIngersoll.
http://wiki.apache.org/lucene-java/ReleaseTodo?action=diff&rev1=105&rev2=106

--------------------------------------------------

   1. Make sure the group ownership on the site is 'lucene' by calling {{{chgrp -R lucene /www/lucene.apache.org/java}}}. Also make files group writable and others read-only by calling {{{chmod -R g+w,o-w /www/lucene.apache.org/java}}}.
   1. Wait for these changes to appear on Apache's main webserver (http://lucene.apache.org) before doing the next steps (see http://www.apache.org/dev/project-site.html for details on how the site is mirrored to Apache's main web servers). Once they appear, verify all links are correct in your changes!
   1. Add the new version to Wikipedia (english and maybe your own language)
-  1. Announce the release on general@lucene.apache.org , dev@lucene.apache.org , java-user@lucene.apache.org and announce@apache.org mailing lists. A draft should be sent to the development list first to clarify any possible issues in the announcement. Mails to the announce list should be sent from an @apache.org email address and contain a signature.  Release announcements can be shared/edited in https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/dev/misc/announcements.
+  1. Announce the release on general@lucene.apache.org , dev@lucene.apache.org , java-user@lucene.apache.org and announce@apache.org mailing lists. A draft should be sent to the development list first to clarify any possible issues in the announcement.  Make sure the announcement has a brief blurb at the top saying what Lucene is (it will save you several snarky comments in reply.) Mails to the announce list should be sent from an @apache.org email address and contain a signature.  Release announcements can be shared/edited in https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/dev/misc/announcements.
   1. Ensure the latest Lucene Jar + MD5 sum file have been pushed to http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/lucene/ by deploying the distribution to http://people.apache.org/repo/m2-ibiblio-rsync-repository/ (that is minotaur.apache.org:/www/people.apache.org/repo/m2-ibiblio-rsync-repository). From there it will be pushed to the central Maven repositories (both Maven 1 and Maven 2) automatically in a few hours. Contact repository@apache.org if there's some problem.
   1. Go to the JIRA "Manage Versions" Administration page (http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/project/ManageVersions.jspa?pid=12310110) and click Release for the version you just released. Also add a new (unreleased) version for the next release on the trunk (for a major release) or branch (for a minor release).
   1. Go to JIRA and find all issues that were fixed in the release you just made, whose Status is Resolved, and do a bulk change to close all of these issues. Uncheck the box that says "send an email for these changes".
