Hi Magna, Richard has been working on this exact problem :-)

We have identified some shortfalls with the current SDK Target Platform 
that prevent release (it needs language packs, and so on).
Richard has start on some additional instructions here:

And I started some notes here - before I got stuck:

Richard will have to tell us more ...

My understanding is that the following is needed:
1. a zip for your eclipse (mostly online help)
2. a zip for your uDig SDK (including extra stuff needed for release)

If you need to release today, you will need set up a normal udig 
development environment (svn checkout etc...) and then also import your 
projects plugins and features into your workspace.  From there you can 
make a product like normal.
