 =================
 
 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:
-
-1. Edit roundup/__init__.py and doc/announcement.txt to reflect the new
-   version and appropriate announcements.
-2. python setup.py clean --all
-3. Edit setup.py to ensure that all information therein (version, contact
-   information etc) is correct.
-4. python setup.py sdist --manifest-only
-5. 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.
-6. python setup.py sdist
-   (if you find sdist a little verbose, add "--quiet" to the end of the
-    command)
+want it to stay that way, too. This document describes how to build a
+source release. Users of Roundup should read the doc/installation.txt file
+to find out how to install this software.
+
+Building and distributing a release of Roundup is done by running:
+
+1.  Make sure the unit tests run! "./run_tests.py"
+2.  Edit roundup/__init__.py and doc/announcement.txt to reflect the new
+    version and appropriate announcements.
+3.  Note the SVN revision in the CHANGES.txt file.
+4.  Clean out all *.orig, *.rej, .#* files from the source.
+5.  python setup.py clean --all
+6.  Edit setup.py to ensure that all information therein (version, contact
+    information etc) is correct.
+7.  python setup.py build_doc
+8.  python setup.py sdist --manifest-only
+9.  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.
+10. python setup.py sdist
+    (if you find sdist a little verbose, add "--quiet" to the end of the
+     command)
+11. Unpack the new dist file in /tmp then a) run_test.py and b) demo.py
+    with all available Python versions.
+12. Assuming all is well tag the release in SVN::
+
+      svn cp https://roundup.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/roundup/roundup/trunk \
+      https://roundup.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/roundup/roundup/tags/release-1-4-16
+
+13. python setup.py bdist_rpm
+14. python setup.py bdist_wininst
+15. Send doc/announcement.txt to python-announce@python.org and
+    roundup-users@lists.sourceforge.net and
+    roundup-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
 
 So, those commands in a nice, cut'n'pasteable form::
 
+ find . -name '*.orig' -exec rm {} \;
+ find . -name '*.rej' -exec rm {} \;
+ find . -name '.#*' -exec rm {} \;
  python setup.py clean --all
+ python setup.py build_doc
  python setup.py sdist --manifest-only
  python setup.py sdist --quiet
+ python setup.py bdist_rpm
+ python setup.py bdist_wininst
+ python setup.py register
+ python setup.py sdist upload --sign
+ python setup.py bdist_wininst upload --sign
 
-or, for the sad RedHat users::
-
- python2 setup.py clean --all
- python2 setup.py sdist --manifest-only
- python2 setup.py sdist --quiet

-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...
