Before tagging a release
------------------------
- Build the Windows/x86 release binaries. Don't forget to supply
VER=/DRELEASE=<ver>. Run them, or at least one or two of them, to
ensure that they really do report their version number correctly.
+ + Save the release link maps. Currently I keep these on ixion,
+ in src/putty/local/maps-<version>.
- Acquire the Windows/alpha release binaries from Owen.
+ Verify the snapshot-key signatures on these, to ensure they're
really the ones he built. If I'm going to snapshot-sign a zip
file I make out of these, I'm damn well going to make sure the
binaries that go _into_ it were snapshot-signed themselves.
+ + Make sure Owen has kept the Alpha release link maps somewhere
+ useful.
- Run Halibut to build the docs.
- Create subdir `htmldoc' in the release directory, which should
contain exactly the same set of HTML files that went into
puttydoc.zip.
+ + It also needs a copy of sitestyle.css, because the online
+ versions of the HTML docs will link to this (although the
+ zipped form should be self-contained).
- Now the whole release directory should be present and correct.
Upload to ixion:www/putty/<ver>, upload to
- Update web site.
+ Adjust front page (`the latest version is <ver>').
+ + Adjust Download page similarly.
+ Adjust filename of installer on links in Download page.
+ Adjust header text on Changelog page. (That includes changing
`are new' in previous version to `were new'!)
