Yes.  I should have completed my question.  I'm never sure what only admins 
can do and what only mere developers can.  The impression I've developed is 
that all I can do is check in code, which is why I didn't look to add the news 
items myself.

If I find that I do have permissions, I'll do so.

More importantly, it would be nice for whoever is releasing a PyXML package to 
update SF at the same time.  Of course it's hard to remember such things, so 
perhaps we need to make up a release check-list.

My first attempt:

*  Ask all developers to check in (say 72 hours before planned release)

  - Note: I actually had some fixes in my local repo that would have been nice 
to get into 0.6.4 (they're in now).  I guess I should just check in more often.

*  Check all test suites (all are in the test directory, except for 
PyXML/xml/dom/ext/reader/test_suite/Benchmark.py, which looks as if it should 
just be nuked)

*  Update any docs

*  Draft announcement

*  Update SF page

Anything else?
