0. Make sure your component has no remaining unresolved JIRAs set for fixVersion = 4.2.0.Alpha1

Unresolved JIRAs with fixVersion = 4.2.0.Alpha1, 8.0.0.Alpha1

1. Ensure your component features/plugins have been properly upversioned, eg., from 1.0.0 to 1.0.1.

2. Update your root pom to use parent pom version 4.2.0.Alpha1-SNAPSHOT;

    <groupId>org.jboss.tools</groupId>
    <artifactId>parent</artifactId>
    <version>4.2.0.Alpha1-SNAPSHOT</version>
  </parent>

3. Ensure you've built & run your plugin tests using the latest target platform version 4.40.0.Alpha1;

mvn clean verify -Dtpc.version=4.40.0.Alpha1  # (if the TP is already released)
  or
mvn clean verify -Dtpc.version=4.40.0.Alpha1-SNAPSHOT # (if still being staged)

4. Branch from your existing master branch into a new jbosstools-4.2.0.Alpha1x branch;
