 Rough Guide to doing Stable Point Releases in Debian

+o Dump projectb for backup purposes.
+o get everything listed, dak control-suite -l proposed-updates > p-u.list
+o add everything to stable:  cat p-u.list |dak control-suite --add stable
+o remove everything from proposed-updates, dak control-suite -r proposed-updates < p-u.list
+o sync with stable RM if there is any propup needed. do it, if so.
+o ask rms if they have RMs to do.
+o If you installed a debian-installer upload; migrate the relevant
+  installer-*/$release directory from proposed-updates to stable.

+o Update version number in README, README.html and dists/README
+o Update the 'Debian<n>.<n>r<n>' symlink in dists/

+Rough Guide to doing Old-Stable Point Releases in Debian
+--------------------------------------------------------
+
+Pretty much as above, except that process-accepted doesn't know about
+oldstable, so you have to do some surgery on it first to make it
+support that.  Probably want to disable cron.daily whilst doing so.
+Also watch out for the installing_to_stable detection which doesn't
+work well with the current layout of oldstable-proposed-updates (as a
+symlink to $distro-proposed-updates).  clean-proposed-updates,
+cruft-report and most everything else support a -s/--suite so they
+sould be fine to use.
