Before performing a main release, you should see if the DSpace Language Packs (i18n modules) need an updated release.  The easiest way to check if they need to be released it by checking to see if any commits have occurred since the previous release (see below for links).  Please note that you can release these I18N Modules on the same day as the main DSpace release.  The DSpace parent pom.xml is now configured to also check Sonatype's Release Repository for any Maven artifacts (so you do NOT need to wait for the I18N modules to appear in Maven Central)

...

Once both Language Packs have been released, you can immediately perform the DSpace release. You do not need to wait for them to appear in Maven Central, as our DSpace parent pom.xml will find them in Sonatype's Release Repository immediately.
