Release checklist and process

[Simon Laws <si...@googlemail.com>]

I've put my notes from release 1.1 up at [1]. This a further development of
Ant's original notes and many of the commands here are from Raymond's script
[2]. Thanks guys.

There is a general high level check list and then a detailed step by step
guide. This is just a brain dump from my R1.1 experience so consider
yourselves invited to improve. As we are starting release 1.2 now it seems
like a good opportunity to test them, plug any holes and generally improve
for the next person.

Is this of any use?

Hi Simon,

Most certainly YES and thanks for putting this together.  Thanks to the
others as well who have contributed to this.  Most times theres so much that
an RM does to plug so many things which we all don't manage to remember at a
later time.  This is going to be certainly useful in that.

Thanks
