The comment on the change is:
Release checklist for Commons

New page:
This is the release checklist for XML Graphics Commons:

 * Determine whether further testing is required.
 * Commit any outstanding changes
 * Edit release notes (relnotes.xml, README, status.xml in the root and in xdocs).
 * Update version number in build.xml, and commit the change.
 * Update the index.xml for the new version.
 * Tag the source tree with the release ID. For example, if the release is 1.0: {{{svn copy https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/xmlgraphics/commons/trunk https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/xmlgraphics/commons/tags/commons-1_0}}}
 * Make a fresh checkout with the just created tag: {{{https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/xmlgraphics/commons/tags/commons-1_0}}}
 * Alternatively, create a build-local.properties file that points to the above libs.
 * Run ant[.sh] dist. Do this once using Sun JDK 1.3.1_15 or later and once with Sun JDK 1.4.2_08 or later. A Forrest installation is needed. For the Sun JDK 1.3.1 dist build, you need to set 'javahome.jdk14' in build-local.properties. Forrest needs JDK >= 1.4.
 * Create signatures. Don't forget to upload your KEY: {{{gpg -a -b --force-v3-sigs xmlgraphics-commons-1.0.tar.gz}}} etc.
 * Upload to people.apache.org. (An account on minotaur is needed): {{{scp xmlgraphics-commons-1.0*.tar.gz* chrisg@people.apache.org:/www/www.apache.org/dist/xmlgraphics/commons/}}}
 * Check permissions: chmod 664 ... ; chgrp xmlgraphics ...
 * Add MD5 sums: {{{md5 xmlgraphics-commons-1.0-bin.tar.gz > xmlgraphics-commons-1.0-bin.tar.gz.md5}}}
 * Make a test download.
 * Update HEADER.html and README.html in {{{people.apache.org:/www/www.apache.org/dist/xmlgraphics/fop/}}}
 * Wait 24 hours (for the mirrors to catch up).
 * Post announcements on general@xmlgraphics.apache.org and other related mailing lists.
 * Add Bugzilla entry for the new release id. (Don't have Bugzilla for Commons, yet)
