Sure. Thanks for volunteering. Thinking about this some more, the code signing part is a lot easier to setup on Windows because of doing the signing of the Windows binaries. It should be possible on other operating systems but I suspect getting that working would take much longer than getting a Windows VM set up. With that in mind if you want to get a Windows VM set up with: - Java 8 (I tend to use latest OpenJDK release) - Git client (with git on your path) - subversion client (I find Tortoise svn works well) - Ant (with ant on your path) - GPG (with access to your signing key) - checkout of 8.5.x I'll get you set up on the DigiCert code signing system we use for releases. Expect the usual "set up your account" emails from DigiCert. Once your DigiCet account is set up you'll need to these instructions (https://infra.apache.org/digicert-use.html) to obtain your credentials and set up for signing windows binaries on windows. Ping me when you have everything set up and you have "ant release" working minus the code signing - or if you need a hand at any point. The DigiCert system is under active development with new features being delivered regularly so things might not match exactly with the instructions. Ping me if you have any questions.
