Me too! I've been waiting for this pull request to be accepted for six
months now:

https://github.com/libwww-perl/http-message/pull/9

Anything I can help with to get the release out?

Sounds great, both my github and cpan ID is "mschilli", I'll be happy to
take care of future releases.

Great, thanks! Is there a specific script you follow when updating the
changelog and releasing new tarballs to cpan?

Sure.  Do you want to do the release yourself?  If you give me your github user name I can add you to the https://github.com/libwww-perl group and then set up co-maint on CPAN.

Both of you now belong to the libwww-perl org on github.

Giving away permissions on CPAN was a lot of work since it appears I to have to give it away for each module individually.  I think I've now added Mike as co-maint on all the LWP modules.  Please let me know if that's not the case.

My release procedure has been:

  - Increment version number in Makefile.PL
  - Check that all updated module files have a version number that match the new release: grep VERSION $(git diff --name-only 6.05) 
  - Paste "git shortlog -n 6.05.." into the Changes file, and edit it until it looks good (enough).
  - make dist
  - upload the tarball

I would suggest that you create a file called release_process, put the above in it, commit to repo (or add to the README or whatever appropriate file), so the knowledge doesn't get lost.

I was planning on doing exactly that, I'm just currently on vacation,
planning on releasing to CPAN next week.
