I don't know. Keep in mind it's been a long time since we cut a release and occasionally SourceForge changes things. You'll want to consult their current docs. > 2.

We were putting the betas on the web site just to avoid polluting the SF Webware file release list with them since they are rather temporary. I'm not religious about this. You can do that or make the beta a real release. > 3. Under "Release on SourceForge", there is an admonition to wait until > after the final test before sending user notification.

That note is a reminder to download the release, unpack it and test the product first. > BTW, on the 'to do' list is updating the Release Procedures doc and > ReleaseHelper.py to use the svn.

Yeah ebad.pair.com is no more. If you still want to put an extra copy of the release somewhere for when SF is broken, the web site would be the place to do it. -Chuck ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the 'Do More With Dual!' webinar happening July 14 at 8am PDT/11am EDT.
