Getting ready for 8.2 release

От

WWW,

The 8.2 release will be going out around 22:00 UTC on December 5th, if it's
not held up by any last-minute RC bugs.   This means that we'll need to
uphold the following schedule:

December 5th
10:00 UTC (or earlier): source and windows binaries on the FTP master.
17:00 UTC (no earler): new home page, press kits, and press faq applied to
website master.
20:00 UTC: community announcement approved for News, -announce
22:00 UTC: press release goes out

I can take care of approving the news and the -announce, but I need a
commitment from someone on WWW to take care of applying the website changes.
I will have the HTML for those changes for you to check/fix tommorrow.

Add to this (to make it a chekclist):
* Load release version of docs
* Remove the beta pages from the testing area (as in saying "we're now
released". We forgot this last time..)


Are you saying you want it actually listed under "latest versions" and
having the "elephant logo" with a text that says 8.2 is out, even though
it's not announced yet?

Yes, these things need to be done and cascading to the mirrors *before* I
mail out the announcement.

I can be aruond for this, and at least do the press-stuff. If someone
else is around at the same time and want to do beta pages and stuff,
let's just coord on IM/IRC.

Not sure if I can be around this time - and at this time we also need
someone to do quick-fixes if something is broken. Apart fromt he
approval stuff there, that Josh can handle. In case something happens...
