[VOTE] Apache Calcite Avatica: Gradle-based release artifacts ready for review

[Vladimir Sitnikov <si...@gmail.com>]

NOTE: This is NOT a vote for releasing Apache Calcite Avatica.

The purpose is mail is to let you know the state of Gradle-based build.
If would be nice if you could review Apache Calcite Avatica 1.16.0-rc1
artifacts.

Note: I have not removed Maven-related files from Git, however the
intention is to completely remove Maven-based build.


Here's an asciinema of the build&release process:
https://asciinema.org/a/258594

Here are my notes:
* Release script does not create Git tag. It should probably create and
push tag before staging the artifacts.
Should it?
Note: Gradle-based script does not need to commit "-SNAPSHOT" vs
"non-snapshot" version changes.

* Release promotion should somehow identify the rc to promote. Any
suggestions?
Should it just search for the latest rc tag? Should it assume for a command
line parameter?

* "committer login" should probably be configurable (currently the script
just prints TBD)

* "preview site" should probably be created (then the script could publish
javadoc/rat preview)
Alternative option is to drop "preview site"-related info from the "draft
vote template".

* We might want to have release-related tasks to "delete stale artifacts
from dist.apache.org"

Below notes are taken from build script output.

On the past weekend I've updated release plugins, so most of my notes are
resolved.

TL;DR:
1) ./gradlew prepareVote -Prc=1 -Pasf # build and stage RC1
2) ./gradlew prepareVote -Prc=2 -Pasf # build and stage RC2
2) ./gradlew publishDist -Prc=2 -Pasf # release RC2 as a release

-Prc is mandatory for prepareVote and publishDist tasks.
publishDist performs "svn mv", so there's no need to delete the latest RC
from SVN.

PS. -Pasf stands for "push artifacts to apache.org services like
dist.apache.org / repository.apache.org". By default it pushes artifacts to
local mock servers.
