Hi,
I've just created xorg-announce@lists.freedesktop.org[0] for release
announcements (including individual tarballs).  When you do a new
tarball release, please do the following:
  * make it available in
    /srv/xorg.freedesktop.org/www/releases/individual/<component>[1]
    on gabe,
  * send an email to xorg-announce with [ANNOUNCE] foobar-1.2.3 as the
    subject[2],
  * include a short description of changes since the previous release,
  * include URLs to the new tarballs, preferably also with MD5/SHA1
    sums,
  * GPG-sign your mail[3].

As evil as Reply-To munging is, I've forced the Reply-To to xorg@.
Discussion should happen there.  In extreme cases where you need to post
other things (e.g. do not use this tarball under any circumstances),
please contact either myself or ajax to get your mail manually rammed
through.

As always, development discussion should continue to happen on xorg@.

Cheers,
Daniel

[3]: At some point I may throw a signature checker on the list, but at
     the moment I really can't be bothered.
