It's happened a couple of times when I've made releases - the
process I had was to automate it as much as possible, then take the

release is still a pretty fiddly process, and things slip through.Anthony's spot on. Even with a release script and PEP 101, it's
still pretty labor intensive. Of course, Python 2.7 and 3.1 still have no official RM <wink> so if you want firsthand experience, the
opportunity is available.I would actually be interested in this. However, I still am quite inexperienced and gladly step aside for anyone who's been around longer.
We have our first victi^H^H^H^Holunteer! :)
Benjamin, you've done some good work on the release.py script and are
always available on IRC when I'm doing a release, so I think you'd be
a good candidate. Will you be at PyCon 2009? It would be nice to
cross-sign some gpg keys.
