[jira] Created: (DROIDS-88) Setup maven to do release management

Setup maven to do release management
------------------------------------

                 Key: DROIDS-88
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DROIDS-88
             Project: Droids
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: Graduating from the Incubator
            Reporter: Richard Frovarp


Maven needs to be setup to do release management for the project. According to Incubator guidelines, the build system should be able to do everything to prepare a release.

Furthermore, if jars are to be released, maven needs to be setup to include the proper files and include a proper manifest.

The Maven project does have a parent pom that can do a lot of this:
