...
- request Bugzilla version update (on https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA or if you are JMeter committer, ask for sufficient Bugzilla karma to do this yourself)
- ensure changes.xml is up to date
- update JMeterVersion.java (version and year), build.xml (version and docversion) and NOTICE (year)
- update xdocs/download_jmeter.xml to the new version
- build site documents, having first cleaned out existing files (so obsolete files will be removed):
Wiki Markup \[clean-docs\] then \[docs-site\]
- update docs tree in SVN
- build code
- test
- GUI and non-GUI using host with graphic capability
- non-GUI only using host with no graphic capability
- ideally test on minimum supported Java and latest Java - especially for GUI
...
- Make sure that file group is set to jmeter (chgrp jmeter apache-jmeter*)
- copy archives to /www/www.apache.org/dist/jmeter/binaries and /www/www.apache.org/dist/jmeter/source as appropriate
- check files are visible and downloadable from www.apache.org (2+ hours)
- wait a day or so for mirrors to catch up
Update JMeter site
...
- login to people.apache.org
- cd /www/jmeter.apache.org/
- fetch site from SVN:
svn switch http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jmeter/tags/vm_n_o/docs- If the documentation needs to be updated between releases, create a branch docs-vm_n_o from the tag and switch to that
- for later updates, use "svn switch" or "svn update" as appropriate (use svn info to find current setting)
- The Javadocs are not in SVN so these need to be copied from the staging area
- N.B. wait for few hours so site updates catch up
