== First bunch ==

Something like 0 to 14 days before release branch cvs:

 * add line for new release in CVS at {non,}free/common/branches (leave the devel entry as it is)

 * create and add new mock config files to all builders; let them use rawhide (as the directories for the new release is not there yet) temporary as there are no updates repos yet

 * create amnd add target files for plague-builders and restart them; then create and add target files for plague-server and restart them

 * some more steps on the CVS box that only Xavier knows

 * Branch in CVS:
{{{

 * adjust config files for push scripts and test the scripts; wun WhatsNew.py once with each config

When new release is out and rawhide is rolling towards the next release again:

 * finally adjust the dist release in CVS at {non,}free/common/branches

 * adjust dist tag and release version in mock config files of all builders

 * adjust config files for new release to point to new directories instead of rawhide

 * build a new release rpm that has rpmfusion-rawhide enabled and stock repos disabled

 * add taret for new release in bugzilla

  * frontpage

  * keys

 * resign development rpms
 
 * recreate repoview with proper title:

About 10 to 14 days before estimated Fedora release

  • open freeze: tell packagers to only build packages if there is a strong reason to
  • check more aggressively for broken deps and broken packages to make sure they get fixed

When final fedora-release got built and published

  • Add aliases to mirrormanager; once done
    • build final rpmfusion-{non,}free packages to for release in question where the release and updates repo are enabled, but development disabled; generate a new rawhide key and include it as well;
    • adjust rpmfusion-{non,}free-remix-kickstarts to use proper mirror manager urls
  • Prepare a "RPM Fusion is ready for F X" announcement mail

When Fedora release is finished

  • remove all packages that are known to be broken
  • remove all packages that have broken deps
  • remove all *-kmod-src.rpm packages from the repos; at the same time rebuilt all kmod packages and make sure akmods packages get built
  • mkdir releases/X; cp development/X/Everything
  • create empty updates{,-testing} repos
