### Doing a release 

0) Turn off all the build flags

0) Testing: remove font cache and test w/ and w/o font cache on some
   example script

0) Testing: Run examples/backend_driver.py w/o errors; run the backend specific
   demos (object_picker, anim , embedding*).  Do an explicity numarray
   and python2.2 test.

0) Remove MANIFEST so it will be rebuilt by MANIFEST.in

0) Make sure sdist builds setuptools-compatible release: Remove
   setup.cfg (or, if more than the [egg_info] section is in
   this file, remove the [egg_info] section). See
   http://mail.python.org/pipermail/distutils-sig/2006-July/006561.html
   for more info.

1) Comment out all the savefig commands in the examples dir
  > rfr -f savefig -r '#savefig' *.py
  > rfr -f '##savefig' -r '#savefig' *.py

2) edit __init__.py, setup.py license.html.template to the correct version number 
   local> clearbak
   local> make htmldocs
   local> scp site.tar.gz jdh2358@matplotlib.sf.net:/home/groups/m/ma/matplotlib/htdocs/
   local> ssh -l jdh2358 shell.sf.net
   sf> cd /home/groups/m/ma/matplotlib/htdocs
   sf> tar xvfz site.tar.gz

  > make release

  > build on win32 (set the backend to tkagg, set the 'auto' flags in
    setup.py to 1, set tk windowing)

  > cvs tag the sucker

4) anon ftp the tar.gz and exe file to SF
  local> cd dist
  local> ncftp upload.sourceforge.net
  ncftp> cd incoming
  ncftp> put tar.gz, zip exe

5) go to https://sourceforge.net/project/admin/?group_id=80706 and do
   a file release.  Click on the "Admin" tab to log in as an admin,
   and then the "File Releases" tab.  Go to the bottom and click "add
   release" and enter the package name but not the version number in
   the "Package Name" box.  You will then be prompted for the "New
   release name" at which point you can add the version number, eg
   somepackage-0.1 and click "Create this release".

   You will then be taken to a fairly self explanatory page where you
   can enter the Change notes, the release notes, and select which
   packages from the incoming ftp archive you want to include in this
   release.  For each binary, you will need to select the platform and
   file type, and when you are done you click on the "notify users who
   are monitoring this package link"


Standard reminders for numarray build

 - change numerix in matplotlibrc *and* setup.py

 - change backend to tkagg in rc

 - email users monitoring the package and me when you are done and
   I'll send the announcement

Trove categorization is under Public info on the admin page

standard reminders for win32

  - setup flags to 1
  - backend tkagg in rc
  - unix2dos the rc file
