| ********* The items below should be done but are out-of-date due ********* |
| ********* to the move of the FreeType CVS and web pages. ********* |
| |
| |
| . Call `make refdoc' to update HTML reference. Copy it to |
| freetype2/docs/reference in the `www' CVS module and update the CVS. |
| Then call `update-www' in ~/cvs/scripts on www.freetype.org to |
| update and distribute everything to sourceforge. |
| |
| . Tag the CVS (freetype, ft2demos, www/freetype2/docs). |
| |
| . Update `make-release' and `make-current' in ~/cvs/scripts/ on |
| www.freetype.org, then call them. |
| |
| . Create an md5 checksum file (with md5sum). |
| |
| . Announce new release on announce@freetype.org and to relevant newsgroups. |
