Here's *my* release checklist.  I'm including it mostly for my
reference but feel free to comment.

- Obtain 3 offical builds (Justin or Misha)
- Have Windows installer updated (IceRAM)
- Create new release @ SF.net (need release notes & README)
- Upload bits to SF.net
- Add link to above in files database on psi.affinix.com
- Post to Announcements forum (& version tracking thread if I haven't
killed it yet)
- Make the press release rounds:
  + freshmeat
  + jabberstudio
  + jdev
  + betanews?  filefront?  (we're in at least one of those type of sites)
  + jabber.org news (stpeter)
  + my blog, your blog, we blog
  + localized sites?  (jabber.pl, .ru, etc)
- Nudge our official maintainers
  + Debian (Jamin)
  + Solaris (Iain)
  + Others currently on download page
- Watch for other user contrib builds, upload/point to content as necessary

Are there any other places Psi should be listed?  Are there any
volunteers to be official maintainers for your OS/distro/religion?
