Update version.  This command seems to find at least most of them,
assuming old version is 1.8.3:

find . -name "*" -print|grep -v kdoc|grep -v ^./other/|grep -v ^./xorp/obj|grep -v ^./www/images|xargs grep "1\.8\.3"



========================================================================

Update copyright notices.  Might want to do a bit of manual inspection
to make sure the script works properly:

# That first big ugly md5sum is the starting git tag for this dev period,
# typically the last commit for the previous release.  Use gitk or similar
# to figure this out.

./xorp/devnotes/update_changed_copyright.bash 6f0890b35697718e4a48f06c1148792aca1091c8 HEAD 2012

# Inspect changes and commit them.


========================================================================
Edit the Web pages in www/html_src/
  * news.html
  * index.html


========================================================================
Update xorp/RELEASE_NOTES

Edit it manually, and also create git shortlog with command
similar to:

git shortlog xorp-1.8.3..HEAD


========================================================================
Tag the code for this release:

git tag xorp-1.8.4-rc


========================================================================
Prepare sofware and documentation tarballs for distribution

Build packages (Ben has a script that does this for his targets).

# Check the ./publish_html.bash to make sure the CTVER is correct.

# Build kdocs and package all web-page related stuff

./publish_html.bash

# Upload it:

scp xorp_www.tar.bz2 www.candelatech.com:


========================================================================
