| - | The release process is overseen by our release manager [[stephan@xfce.org|Stephan Arts]]. If you want to step in and help with preparing parts of the releases don't hesitate to contact him. | ||
| - | |||
| - | **Release process:** | ||
| - | - Send mail to xfce4-dev@xfce.org mailing-list 2 days before tagging. | ||
| - | - NEWS files | ||
| - | * Ask module maintainers to update their NEWS in svn | ||
| - | * Create HTML release notes for website from NEWS files | ||
| - | - Make sure the application actually compiles and that 'make distcheck' works; commit build fixes as needed | ||
| - | - Update ChangeLogs (only for module maintainers who use svn2cl) | ||
| - | - Bump version numbers (drop 'svn' tag) | ||
| - | - Rebuild po/*.po to update Project-Id-Version and prevent problems during make distcheck. | ||
| - | - Tag the release in svn | ||
| - | - Make release packages | ||
| - | * .tar.bz2 of each module (create with 'make distcheck') | ||
| - | * "Fat" tarball of all .tar.bz2 modules | ||
| - | * GUI installer package | ||
| - | - Generate MD5 and SHA1 checksums, and GPG signatures for each module | ||
| - | - Upload tarballs (only tar.bz2) to main server (request mirror maintainers to do a manual sync) and Sourceforge | ||
| - | - Release announcements/websites: | ||
| - | * xfce.org main page | ||
| - | * Freshmeat | ||
| - | * Gnomefiles | ||
| - | * Slashdot (only for 4.x.0 releases) | ||
| - | * OSNews | ||
| - | * ?? | ||
