GeoMoose 2 Release Procedure

Follow RFC 3: GeoMoose Release Process and this file

• If not already created, create /releases/M.m.r.txt, summarizing changes from the previous release. It may help to look at the GitHub issues related to the release milestone and the git commit messages leading up to the release.
• That file should include new features, changed features, and depreciated features. Changes to the mapbook should be specifically noted along with other items that will cause breaking changes during upgrades. A MapServer and MS4W version (and implicitly PHP, etc) recommendation should be included too.
• Update VERSIONS.rst to explicitly define the versions of PHP and MapServer used during development. Recommendations on Apache and MS4W versions should also be present.
• evaluate <mapbook version=”#.#”> in mapbook.xml
• Read the documentation and remove outdated parts.
• Update FAQ (remove no longer relevant questions, add new questions).
• Ensure that release exactly matches something in Git. Tag and branch (then push) appropriately.
• Update documentation as needed keeping in mind that the versioned documentation on the website pulls from different Git branches of geomoose-docs.
• Update copyright headers to current date (not exactly sure how to do this easily yet…)
• Publish the release:
  • Generate the distribution files (see below).
  • Update geomoose-website/source/downloads.rst with new links
  • Update the news in index.rst (link to /releases/M.m.r.txt), move some of the existing stuff to previous Older News if needed
  • Put the word out on geomoose-users email list and other locations (news_item@osgeo.org, SlashGeo?, etc)
