Description

The Release Wizard guides the Release Manager through the release process step by step, helping you to to run the right commands in the right order, generating e-mail templates with the correct texts, versions, paths etc, obeying the voting rules and much more. It also serves as a documentation of all the steps, with timestamps, preserving log files from each command etc, showing only the steps and commands required for a major/minor/bugfix release. It also lets you generate a full Asciidoc guide for the release.
