Not able to promote the staging repo

[Sahoo <sa...@oracle.com>]

Hi,

I am trying to promote the binaries for eventadmin 1.2.8. I have 
uploaded them to the Felix dist directory 
(/x1/www/www.apache.org/dist/felix) on people.apache.org. The next step 
as per the document is:
/
login to https://repository.apache.org with your Apache SVN credentials. 
Click on Staging. Find your closed staging repository, right click on it 
and choose Promote. Select the Releases repository from the drop-down 
list and click Promote./

I see the "Promote" button disabled. There are two options available to 
me: "Release," "Drop". Should I chose "Release?"

Thanks,
Sahoo

Yes, you have to use 'release'. I just did this morning, and it has worked
(artifacts were pushed to central).

BTW, this push takes a while (a couple of hours), so don't expect something
immediate.
