-This text summarizes some points to pay attention to when a new release
-of sane-backends is planned.
-
-Timetable (approximate periods):
-
-Day  0: Announcement of upcoming release on sane-devel including timetable
-        and pointer to the GitLab milestone
-Day 14: Feature freeze (only bugfixes + documentation updates)
-Day 28: Code freeze (only fixes for bugs that can destroy hardware, can cause
-        compilation problems or render a backend completely unusable, and
-        documentation updates are allowed)
-Day 35: Release
-
-Before the release:
-
-* set :new :yes on any new backend .desc files, by looking for added files:
-
-  version=1.0.27
-  git ls-files -- backend | while read f; do
-    git log --follow --diff-filter=A --find-renames=40% \
-            --format="%ai  $f" $version..HEAD -- "$f"
-  done | cat
-
-* NEWS: update and enter date of release, etc
-  Get list of heavily change backends via: git diff --stat $version..HEAD
-  Get list of details from: git log $version..HEAD
-* git commit -a
-* git push origin master
-
-Making the release:
-
-* temporarily set a PRIVATE_TOKEN variable in the GitLab CI/CD
-  variables.  You have to create one in your own Settings > Access
-  Tokens.  Set it to expire the next day to avoid abuse.  Better yet,
-  remove it from the CI/CD variables when the job is finished.
-* git tag -a -s 1.0.28 -m Release
-* git push --tags origin master
-* trigger the manual 'release' stage of the build via the web UI when
-  this becomes possible.  This requires a valid PRIVATE_TOKEN.
-
-Updating the website and announcing the release:
-
-* checkout the sane/website.git module and:
-* copy sane-backends.html to sane-backends-"old-version".html
-* update sane-supported-devices.html with link to above "old" file
-* rebuild sane-backends.html and sane-mfgs.html (make -C doc html-pages)
-* [TBD] use man2html from http://hydra.nac.uci.edu/indiv/ehood/man2html.html
-  to rebuild html man pages (make -C doc html-man) (no other version works)
-* update announcement to index.html
-* git commit -a && git push
-* check that website's pipeline succeeded
-* announce release on sane-announce mailing list (and Cc: sane-devel).
-  Ping the sane-announce list's moderator (m. allan noah) to get your
-  post approved ASAP.
-
-After the release:
-
-* remove the ':new' tag from all doc/descriptions*/*.desc files
-* git add new and changed files and commit
-* git push
