[Monotone-devel] anyone want to try being release manager?

[Nathaniel J. Smith]

I've been monotone's release manager since, AFAICT, March of
2005... so almost 2 years now!  Maybe someone else would like to try
their hand at it?

It is not really a crushingly painful thing the way being a release
manager for, say, gcc, or Debian, is -- mostly you just have to write
up the release notes and roll the release, once month.  But I haven't
been managing to do that (we're late again on 0.32 already), being
busy with things like the summit, and really I do too much stuff
anyway, so it's good to spread the responsibility around.  (Other
people are allowed to review patches, too, btw ;-).)

If you want to see what exactly is involved, there's
notes/release-checklist.txt in the tree:

and of course if anyone wants to take this up then I'll watch over
your shoulder for the first release or two to make sure you're doing
okay.

Any volunteers?
