- integrate patchsets for release
Build binaries:
- run the release build job https://ci.eclipse.org/ease/job/ease.build.release/

- make sure your git repos are up to date
- Switch to 'Git Repositories' view
- select <Repository>/Tags
- select context menu 'Create Tag...'
- set Tag name to 'ease-0.x.0', set Tag message to 'release 0.x.0' (adapt major/minor version)

- verify that the log is correct and send it by pushing the Submit For Review button. You will receive a link to a CQ on the following page. That link will be needed in the next steps.
- once the IP log is submitted, development on the master branch may continue
- send an email to technology-pmc@eclipse.org mailing list, requesting release approval.

Schedule the review
See Review Process

Create & update release binaries:
- run ease-release on the Hudson server. Building is save and does not alter official download locations. Build will run from master branch by default. If you want to build from a release branch, the job needs to be adapted.
- on a failure: fix the problem, back to step 1
- promote the build and set the version parameter correctly (eg 0.5.3). After promotion the update sites and download locations are updated and live.
- on a failure: fix the problem, back to step 1
- create a tag named ease_${version} (eg ease_0.5.3) for each of the following repositories:
- push created tags
- update the Release Notes wiki page
- update the download/index.php page location
- add a news entry to the news folder
- post an update to the mailing list

- search/replace 'version="0.8.0.qualifier"' for feature.xml files
- also update /plugins/pom.xml, /features/pom.xml, tests/pom.xml files
