Release Tasks
------------------------------------------
1. Bump the VERSION number in src/config.py.
2. Update the NEWS file, and ensure it lists all changes (hint: bzr log).
3. Generate the tarball:
python setup.py sdist
4. Manually check the contents of the generated tarball (you'll find it
in dist/) to ensure there's no file missing or too much, and try
installing and running it.
If you find a problem, fix it, commit the fix, and start again from 1.
Hint: In case of a missing file or a useless file being there, edit
the MANIFEST.in file.
5. Create a datached signature for the tarball, with:
gpg --armor --sign --detach-sig \
dist/gnome-activity-journal-$(python -c \
'import src.config; print src.config.VERSION').tar.gz
6. Upload the tarball and the generated *.asc GPG signature to the right
milestone on Launchpad.
7. Write an announcement e-mail and send it to the following mailing lists:
+ zeitgeist@lists.launchpad.net
+ gnome-zeitgeist-users@lists.launchpad.net
+ gnome-announce-list@gnome.org
10. Post an announcement on the Launchpad project page based the e-mail.
