The release notes at SourceForge will need to be created and or updated. In general, this involves the following:
- Create the file: "src/sf/sf-release-notes-${VERSION}.html" (copy an existing file to use as a starting point).
- Update the information contained in the file (MD5 sums, notes about the release, etc).
- Upload the release notes to SourceForge.
- Log into the SourceForge site and go to the file management area. Flag the newly uploaded file as a release notes document.
- Edit the properties for the other files uploaded for the release and associate them with the release notes document.
Here's example of how one might create and upload the release notes:
[root@nst-dev-32 repo]# cd src/sf [root@nst-dev-32 sf]# cp sf-release-notes-2.11.0.html sf-release-notes-2.12.0.html [root@nst-dev-32 sf]# emacs -nw sf-release-notes-2.12.0.html ... Edit release notes HTML ... [root@nst-dev-32 sf]# make release-notes-upload ... Output related to the transfer to SourceForge ... [root@nst-dev-32 sf]#
