Rolling a Release

Requirements

• Recent Maven (>=3.5? - 3.0 is too old.)
• Oracle JDK 8 (not compatible with later versions AFAICT)
• Internet Access
• GPG keys setup
• Access to the release artefact package 'space', which is uk.bl.wa.discovery in this case.

See OSSRH Guide for details, including the documentation on setting up Maven to deploy to OSSRH.
