-------------------------------------------------

Last update on needed steps:

Current status:
"Stage 1" (first snapshot repo without images)
* a. oVirt nightlies are being published as usual
* b. A snapshot was created manually using repoman command, as described in [1]
* c ** missing ** 
* d. new release rpm for 4.0 was created manually [2]
* e ** missing ** 
* f. new softlink was created for latest pre-alpha releases [3]
"Stage 2" (final repo with images)
* a. new jobs [4] building node + appliance created using the rpm from [3]

Missing steps:
"Stage 1" (first snapshot repo without images)
* new jenkins job that will run the whole flow starting from 1b, work has started here [5] (@sandro, please correct if i'm wrong)
* new step for checking repoclosure needs to be added as step 'c', code can be taken from [6].
* automate the step of building the release rpm pointing to a specific release dir.
* create new release rpm that will always point to latest snapshot link [3]
* add sanity for first repo using lago, similar to [7], just using the new release rpm to run on the new snapshot (step 1e)
 "Stage 2" (repo including images)
* run the job(s) to build appliance, node & ovirt-live using the rpm from [2]. (job for ovirt-live might needs fixing to use release rpm)
* push the new images to the new repo, using TBD job
* run repoclosure to make sure images are install-able, similar to [6]
* run lago sanity tests on whatever is possible (node/appliance/he)
* update softlink [3] to point to new repo with images 
* make repo readonly
* move bugs to ON_QA [8]
* send email on release with links + changelog

[7] http://jenkins.ovirt.org/job/ovirt_master_system-tests/
[8] as first step we'll use the logic of extracting bugs from the commits msg for a list of projects (do we need approval from each maintainer?)

> We need a more static 4.0 snapshots that will be able to be consumed by people who want to verify a certain build without having a rolling nightly build.
> * Add a jjb jenkins job that will run manually/once a week and will create a snap 4.0 repo on  
>    resources.ovirt.org from latest nightlies (will need to create the repo on resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-4.0/
> * Use repoman with the following cmd: "/usr/bin/repoman ovirt_4.0.0_snap1 add conf:ovirt-4.0-snapshots.repoman --keep-latest 1" [1]
> * This should collect all latest nightlies for 4.0 into a build dir called ovirt_4.0.0_snap1
> * We'll run repoclosure on it once the copy is finished
> * run sanity (either manually or via Lago manual if possible)
> * rhevh team run sanity on the node builds from nightly 
> * Create latest_4.0.0_snapshot link to the repo and update it on each release + create new release rpm with that link.
> * Move bugs - either move all MODIFIED bugs with target milestone ovirt-4.0.0 or move only bugs with bug-url from the commit msg.
> * Send email to users/devel with info on release (list of bugs + link to release rpm).
