## Prerequisites
+1. Ensure that you have a GPG key or generate a new one, e.g., using `gpg --gen-key`.
+
+2. Add your GPG public key to the Apache Mesos dist repository in the KEYS file.
+ - Fetch the svn repository `svn co https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/mesos`
+ - Append your public key using one of methods described in KEYS,
+ e.g., `(gpg --list-sigs <your name> && gpg --armor --export <your name>) >> KEYS`.
+ - Push the commit: `svn ci`
+
+3. Submit your GPG public key to a keyserver, e.g., [MIT PGP Public Key Server](https://pgp.mit.edu).
+
+4. Add your GPG fingerprint to your [Apache account](https://id.apache.org/).
+
+5. Create a Maven settings file (`~/.m2/settings.xml`) for the Apache
+ servers. Encrypt your Apache password using `mvn --encrypt-password`.
+```
+<settings>
+ <servers>
+ <server>
+ <id>apache.snapshots.https</id>
+ <username>APACHE USERNAME</username>
+ <password>APACHE ENCRYPTED PASSWORD</password>

+ <username>APACHE USERNAME</username>
+ <password>APACHE ENCRYPTED PASSWORD</password>
+ </server>
+ </servers>
+</settings>

+6. Use `gpg-agent` to avoid typing your passphrase repeatedly.
