+Building Releases
+=================
 
 Roundup is currently a source-only release - it has no binary components. I
 want it to stay that way, too.

 This means that we only need to ever build source releases. This is done by
 running:
 
-  0. python setup.py clean --all
-  1. Edit setup.py to ensure that all information therein (version, contact
-     information etc) is correct.
-  2. python setup.py sdist --manifest-only
-  3. Check the MANIFEST to make sure that any new files are included. If
-     they are not, edit MANIFEST.in to include them. "Documentation" for
-     MANIFEST.in may be found in disutils.filelist._parse_template_line.
-  4. python setup.py sdist
-     (if you find sdist a little verbose, add "--quiet" to the end of the
-      command)
-  5. FTP the tar.gz from the dist directory to to the "incoming" directory on
-     "upload.sourceforge.net".
-  6. Make a quick release at:

+Distributing Releases
+=====================
+
+Once a release is built, follow these steps:
+
+1. FTP the tar.gz from the dist directory to to the "incoming" directory on
+   "upload.sourceforge.net".
+2. Make a quick release at:
+    http://sourceforge.net/project/admin/qrs.php?package_id=&group_id=31577
+3. Add a news item at:
+    https://sourceforge.net/news/submit.php?group_id=31577
+   using the top of doc/announcement.txt
+4. Send doc/announcement.txt to python-announce@python.org
+5. Notify any other news services as appropriate...
