+Releasing A Parent POM
+
+  Releasing a Parent POM is much the same as any other Maven project. The 
following
+  guide walks through most of the steps:
+
+    * {{{./maven-project-release-procedure.html} Maven Project Common Release 
procedure}}
+  
+  Note that Parent POMs have particular conventions for managing and deploying 
the project site.
+
+* Rationale
+
+  To be able to publish a documentation of the parent POM without affecting 
released POM and <<<site.xml>>>,
+  parent POM projects have a specific structure, with the addition of 
<<<site-pom.xml>>> and <<<src/site-docs>>>
+  provind <<<mvn -f site-pom.xml site>>>:
+
++----+
+|-- pom.xml
+|-- site-pom.xml
+`-- src
+    |-- site
+    |   `-- site.xml
+    `-- site-docs
+        |-- apt
+        |   `-- index.apt
+        `-- site.xml
++----+
+
+  And the <<<index.apt>>> page not only contains instructions about the 
content of the parent POM, but
+  it maintains an historic of pom releases links and diffs.
+
+  Each specific step is done to maintain <<<site-pom.xml>>> and 
<<<index.apt>>> in sync with the release being realeased.
+
+* Stage the release
+
+  Before staging the release with usual procedure, you need to update 
<<<site-pom.xml>>> and <<<index.apt>>> to
+  take the future release into account:
+
+  [[1]] update <<<site-pom.xml>>> parent pom version to match the version 
being released,
+
+  [[2]] update <<<src/site-docs/index.apt>>>: add a line in the history of 
<<<pom.xml>>> for the future version, referring
+  to the future svn release tag and date. Hint: in the diff link, value for 
<<<r2>>> parameter is easily found by
+  following previous version link and copying revision number.
+
+  []
+
+  Once these modifications are done, you can follow standard staging steps 
taking care to use the <<<site-pom.xml>>> pom,
+  with <<<mvn -f site-pom.xml ...>>> command, each time the parent POM's site 
is generated.
+
+* Updating the Maven site
+
+ Check out the maven site project from 
<<<https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/site/trunk>>> or pull the latest
+ changes if already checked out.
+
+ Update the version number for the parent POM on the 
<<<src/site/apt/pom/index.apt>>> page.
+
+ Commit your changes and then deploy the site.
