Re: release of geexbox 3.0
Benjamin Zores
You'd need to do an as exhaustive as possible changelog of the release for both sources and website.
Also, you'll have to tag the hg sources you used to build + create the symlink on server for 3.0 sources tarballs download.
You also need to declare release + changelog on sf.net, freshmeat, distrowatch and ohloh.
Last but not least, I usually write down news articles that i submit to most of advertising websites (slashgear, phoronix for usa, linuxfr, clubic, pcinpact for french). I usually do more but this is a good start. Note that the whole list of TODOs is a highly time consuming task.
GeeXboX notority has logically decreased over time. If you wanna do a 3.0 release, you really need proper advertising.
