<h1>Freshmeat Setup</h1>

In order for you to submit Freshmeat project announcements with ReleaseForge you must first configure 
ReleaseForge using the <b>Freshmeat Setup</b> from the <b>Actions</b> menu.

<p>
The purpose of this dialog is for you to link your Freshmeat project names to your SourceForge 
project names.  Typically, they are the same, but just incase the names differ you must inform 
ReleaseForge of this association.  ReleaseForge does not make any assumptions.  

<p>
For each of your Freshmeat projects, simply select the related SourceForge project from the dropdown.
Once you have done this for all of your Freshmeat projects, press the <b>Ok</b> button.  

<p>

Upon accessing the <b>Freshmeat Setup</b> dialog you may be prompted for your Freshmeat login
information.  Once you have supplied this information, ReleaseForge will establish an xml-rpc
connection to Freshmeat.  If, during your ReleaseForge session your Freshmeat xml-rpc connection times
out, ReleaseForge will attempt to re-establish the connection automatically (without requiring you to
enter your login credentials again).

</center>
<p>

Once you are satisfied with your message, press the <i>Ok</i> button to save your configuration.  You 
can now use the <a href="freshmeat_submit.html">Freshmeat Release</a> wizard for each of the related 
projects.
<p>

Any time that you add a new Freshmeat project you will want to return to this setup dialog to 
configure the project relationships.
