[cle-release-team] Hoe to release an indie

[Matthew Jones]

Yea, I'd think you have to comment on that ticket to see the
org.sakaiproject issues. I can't see anyone elses staged projects. You can
try though before if you wanted. All you have to do is change your parent
to the sonatype one and see what happens. You can deploy it from the
command line if you have the credentials and skip Jenkins entirely, but I'm
just trying to simplify it so more people will use it and we can keep track
better of the versions released.
