Apache JDO Release Strategy

Apache JDO is currently in incubation

We need to be careful to not promote releases as official. We will need to change the group id of the projects to reflect the status. For example, "incubating-jdo".

That said, there are several components that are ready enough to release, and we can discuss details.

api11 and api20

These should be released simply as .jar files. There is no need for a README, as the javadoc is published already on the JDO site, and the specification is available via the JCP process

For api11: http://jcp.org/aboutJava/communityprocess/final/jsr012/index2.html

For api20: http://jcp.org/aboutJava/communityprocess/pfd/jsr243/index.html

ri11

This should be released as a .zip file containing a README and some structure, TBD.

tck11

This should be released as a .zip file containing a README and including the tck jar file and the ri11 jar file and some other structure, TBD.
