How to prepare a new release
----------------------------
. include/freetype/freetype.h: Update FREETYPE_MAJOR, FREETYPE_MINOR, and
FREETYPE_PATCH.
. builds/unix/configure.ac (version_info): Update according to the libtool
rules, then regenerate the configure script with the top-level
`autogen.sh'. After that, update `config.guess' and `config.sub' to
the most recent versions (from the `config' CVS repository).
. builds/freetype.mk (refdoc): Update the `--title' option.
. docs/CHANGES: Document differences to last release.
. README: Update.
. docs/VERSION.DLL: Document changed `version_info'.
. ChangeLog: Announce new release.
********* The items below should be done but are out-of-date due *********
********* to the move of the FreeType CVS and web pages. *********
. Call `make refdoc' to update HTML reference. Copy it to
freetype2/docs/reference in the `www' CVS module and update the CVS.
Then call `update-www' in ~/cvs/scripts on www.freetype.org to
update and distribute everything to sourceforge.
. Tag the CVS (freetype, ft2demos, www/freetype2/docs).
. Update `make-release' and `make-current' in ~/cvs/scripts/ on
www.freetype.org, then call them.
. Create an md5 checksum file (with md5sum).
. Announce new release on announce@freetype.org and to relevant newsgroups.
