I'm writing a script to automate bits of the release process from the
package maintainer side, and I'd like to learn more about how people
do things currently, so I can write something that fits reasonably
well with the current practices.

When a maintainer decides to release a package, they need to remove
the package from testing/ and copy it to newpkgs/ on bender. However,
the maintainer needs to retain a copy of the package for future
reference. I have a directory ~/to-release, in which I keep the
packages I intend to send to the release maintainer. I also have
~/to-release/released where I keep copies of the packages that have
been released. Do other people do it similarly? Where do you store the
copies of packages being currently in the release process?

Gar always put it in ~/gar/pkgs which I use to copy to testing/ and to newpkgs/ when I'm ready for a release.
