+<P>The <A href="http://www.apache.org/dev/release.html#what" class="external-link" rel="nofollow">ASF release definition</A> basically says that any artifact that is made available for people outside of the Apache Tuscany project is considered a release. The Release process usually consist of preparing the contents of the release on the project dev-list, voting release candidate(s) and, because Tuscany is still under Incubation, asking the iPMC to approve the release after it has already been approved on the project development community.</P>
