A collection of ideas or improvements for Deluge 2.0 release process:
* Add the following to setup.py:
* ~~Should attempt to minify js scripts and inform user if unsuccessful.~~
* Update version (and date?) in man files. Eventual view would be to autocreate man files from help options.
* Changes to `make_release` script:
* Use `sdist` to create tarball. This replaces use of git archive as sdist should produce a pristine tar so no need to attempt to modify contents as in current `make_release`.
* sdist should be able to produce xz tarball with additional python 2.7 module: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/backports.lzma
* Decide whether need to remove the unwanted extra files such as egg-info.
* Switch to using just sha256sum for file hash verification and create a `shasums.txt` file.
* Simplify number of tarballs provided, so either drop gzip or bzip2 (or both).
* ~~Rename lzma tarball to xz.~~
* Add `make_release` script to git packaging directory.
* On the ftp, use a single release version folder for all the tarballs, bundled packages and shasum files.
