I'm aware that I've not been great about keeping people up to date
about my timing plans for the last couple of releases, so I'd like to
be a little more organized this time.
My plan goes roughly as follows:
April 8 ~1200 GMT: freeze begins.
Over the next 24 hours I'll do tests, write
Misc/NEWS, update version numbers, etc.
April 9 ~1200 GMT: freeze ends, release begins.
This is when Fred, Tim and Jack do their magic,
and check any changes they have to make into the
tree.
I'd really like to get the Mac release done at the
same time as the others.
During this time, I'll draft changes to python.org
and an announcement.
April 10 ~1200 GMT: release ends
By now, F, T & J have done their bits, uploaded
files to creosote and sf (or pointed me to where I
can get them), etc.
I twiddle pages on creosote, fiddle with sf, tag
the tree, cut the tarball, compute md5s, etc.
The cunning will notice that this doesn't require me to be in the
office after half past five...
Does this plan sound reasonable to everyone?
Cheers,
M.

I don't have any special knowledge of all this. In fact, I made all
the above up, in the hope that it corresponds to reality.
