+
+Overview of necessary steps
+1. Release on Joinup page
+2. Push code to public git repo: git.egiz.gv.at
+3. Add release news to the website
+
+1.Release on Joinup page
+To add contribution on Joinup page, both release folder and maven repository are necessary.
+
+Create release folder by running:
+
+./gradle jar sourcesJar war distZip distTar releases
+
+With this command, a release folder is created. 
+Note: The release version should be without snapshot!
+Release folder needs to be uploaded to https://apps.egiz.gv.at/releases/pdf-as/release/ 
+
+Create mvn repo folder by running:
+
+./gradle uploadArchives
+
+The generated mvn repo needs to be uploaded to https://apps.egiz.gv.at/maven/at/gv/egiz/pdfas/
+
+After this, the release on Joinup page is necessary. 
+For this purpose, make sure to have corresponding role in PDF-AS project. 
+Make a new "release" on PDF-AS page on Joinup. The release version should contain a new version number, distribution links, and notes about the major changes in that version.
