https://wiki.apache.org/logging/Log4j2ReleaseGuide <https://wiki.apache.org/logging/Log4j2ReleaseGuide> is fairly close to being up to date. I try to update it whenever I change the process. Some of the steps are one time only - like getting the signing key or setting up Maven.
I should add one more step before running the release build. I always build the web site first and inspect it for problems before I start the release. Basically, by the time I start running the release plugin I am pretty confident I am going to vote +1 as all the tests have passed for me, I know Maven is going to sign almost everything, and I have performed all the RAT checks. Usually, getting to that point takes me several hours as I almost always find new modules that are missing the license or run into a test that fails and I have to create a new logo. Believe it or not, the second longest part of the process is uploading the web site with each release. The web site is pretty big.
