+# Verifying the release candidate by PMCs (legal)
+
+## PMC voting
+
+The PMCs should verify the releases in order to make sure the release is following the
+[Apache Legal Release Policy](http://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html).
+
+At least 3 (+1) votes should be recorded in accordance to
+[Votes on Package Releases](https://www.apache.org/foundation/voting.html#ReleaseVotes)
+
+The legal checks include:
+
+* checking if the packages are present in the right dist folder on svn
+* verifying if all the sources have correct licences
+* verifying if release manager signed the releases with the right key
+* verifying if all the checksums are valid for the release
+
+## SVN check
+
+The files should be present in the sub-folder of
+[Airflow dist](https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/airflow/)
+
+The following files should be present (9 files):
+
+* -bin-tar.gz + .asc + .sha512
+* -source.tar.gz + .asc + .sha512
+* -.whl + .asc + .sha512
+
+As a PMC you should be able to clone the SVN repository:
+
+```bash
+svn co https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/airflow
+```
+
+Or update it if you already checked it out:
+
+```bash
+svn update .
+```
+
+## Verifying the licences
+
+This can be done with the Apache RAT tool.
+
+* Download the latest jar from https://creadur.apache.org/rat/download_rat.cgi (unpack the sources,
+  the jar is inside)
+* Unpack the -source.tar.gz to a folder
+* Enter the folder and run the check (point to the place where you extracted the .jar)
+
+```bash
+java -jar ../../apache-rat-0.13/apache-rat-0.13.jar -E .rat-excludes -d .
+```
+
+## Verifying the signatures
+
+Make sure you have the key of person signed imported in your GPG. You can find the valid keys in
+[KEYS](https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/airflow/KEYS). You can import them with the GPG
+command. The below one uses Kaxil's key and retrieves it from the default GPG keyserver
+[OpenPGP.org](https://keys.openpgp.org):
+
+```bash
+gpg --receive-keys 12717556040EEF2EEAF1B9C275FCCD0A25FA0E4B
+```
+
+You should choose to import the key when asked.
+
+Note that by being default, the OpenPGP server tends to be overloaded often and might respond with
+errors or timeouts. Many of the release managers also uploaded their keys to the
+[GNUPG.net](https://keys.gnupg.net) keyserver, and you can retrieve it from there.
+
+```bash
+gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --receive-keys 12717556040EEF2EEAF1B9C275FCCD0A25FA0E4B
+```
+
+Once you have the keys, the signatures can be verified by running this:
+
+```bash
+for i in *.asc
+do
+   echo "Checking $i"; gpg --verify `basename $i .sha512 `
+done
+```
+
+This should produce results similar to the below. The "Good signature from ..." is indication
+that the signatures are correct. Do not worry about the "not certified with a trusted signature"
+warning. Most of certificates used by release managers are self signed, that's why you get this
+warnning. By importing the server in the previous step and importing it via ID from
+[KEYS](https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/airflow/KEYS) page, you know that
+this is a valid Key already.

+Checking apache-airflow-1.10.12rc4-source.tar.gz.sha512

+
+# Verifying if the release "works" by Contributors
+
+This can be done (and we encourage to) by any of the Contributors. In fact, it's best if the
+actual users of Apache Airflow test it in their own staging/test installations. Each release
+is available as PyPI release - not only as SVN packages, so everyone should be able to install
+the release candidate version of Airflow via simply (<VERSION> is 1.10.12 for example, and <X> is
+release candidate number 1,2,3,....).
+
+```
+pip install apache-airflow==VERSIONrcX`
+```
+Optionally it can be followed with constraints
+
+```bash
+pip install apache-airflow-<VERSION>>rc<X> \
