Description

Training to release:

  • in this ticket create branch with code cleanup commits
  • update NEWS file
  • new Tag in git
  • new version in trac
  • Package tar.(gz|bzip|lzma) files
  • make checksums for arhives
  • Upload source packages and fixup ​http://www.midnight-commander.org/downloads
  • Try to download, verify checksums, build and install tarballs
  • Update Wiki start page (latest release numbers)
  • Craft announcement paper: list user visible changes (bugs and features)
  • Create new NEWS file :)
  • PROFIT

Please remember, after pre4 we will release out 4.7.0
Therefore one month no any changes of i18n-related stuff, no any nes features - just bugfixing. Need to prepare translations and need to contact with i18n-teams.

New NEWS File must contain changes between previous stable (mc-4.6.0) and current stable (mc-4.7.0). Therefore need to collect changeset from all NEWS-4.7.0-pre* files.
