 Once testing against the staging repo has been completed and project has
 determined that the staged repo is ready for release. A release can the be
-performed as follows:
-
-1. Ask helpdesk to sign the artifacts in staging repo
-2. Ask helpdesk to promote the staging repo
-3. Download taglist.log and project.bundle files. They can be found in the
-   "patches" directory of the related jenkins release job logs.
-4. Read taglist.log and checkout the commit hash listed
-5. Merge the project.bundle patches
-6. Git tag the release
-7. Push release tag to Gerrit
-
-Steps 4-7 as bash:
-You will need a working GPG config to sign the release Git tag ("-s" option)
-
-.. code:: bash
-
-    PATCH_DIR=/tmp/patches
-    PROJECT=odlparent
-    VERSION=1.2.3
-    git checkout $(awk '{print $NF}' "$PATCH_DIR/taglist.log")
-    git fetch "$PATCH_DIR/$PROJECT.bundle"
-    git merge --ff-only FETCH_HEAD
-    git tag -asm "$PROJECT $VERSION" "v$VERSION"
-    git push origin "v$VERSION"
-
-Once complete the Git tag should be available in Gerrit and the Artifacts should
-appear in the Nexus opendaylight.release repo.
-
-The following shell script will do this for you:
-
-.. code:: bash
-
-    #!/bin/sh
-
-    set -e
-
-    if [ $# != 3 ]; then
-        echo Usage: $0 project version log-URL
-        echo fetches a project release\'s logs from log-URL and tags the git repository
-        exit 1
-    fi
-
-    PROJECT=$1
-    VERSION=$2
-    PATCH_DIR=/tmp/patches
-
-    mkdir -p $PATCH_DIR
-    cd $PATCH_DIR
-    rm -f ${PROJECT}.bundle taglist.log{,.gz}
-    wget ${3}/patches/{${PROJECT}.bundle,taglist.log.gz}
-    gunzip taglist.log.gz
-    cd -
-    git checkout $(awk '{print $NF}' "$PATCH_DIR/taglist.log")
-    git fetch "$PATCH_DIR/$PROJECT.bundle"
-    git merge --ff-only FETCH_HEAD
-    git tag -asm "$PROJECT $VERSION" "v$VERSION"
-    git push origin "v$VERSION"
-
-You need to run it from a clone git repository of your project,
-and give it as arguments the project’s short name, the newly-
-released version, and the URL of the release build’s logs; for
-example:
-

+3. Choose your project dashboard
+4. Check your release branch has been successfully staged and note the corresponding log folder
+5. Go back to the dashboard and choose the release-merge job
+6. Click on build with parameters
+7. Fill in the form:

+* choose maven DISTRIBUTION_TYPE in the select box
+* uncheck USE_RELEASE_FILE box
