People make mistakes. Can we reduce the number/severity of those
mistakes by creating a Python script to automate the release process as
much as possible? Things like:
- check that the version number in setup.py doesn't match an existing
release in cheeseshop
- check whether you have modified but not committed (or unversioned)
files in the source tree
- check that you've created a tag in subversion for this release (or,
alternatively, offer to create the tag for you)
- build an egg, install it locally in a temporary directory, then run
the test suite to check for any missing files or whatever
(a somewhat related idea would be to set up a buildbot to check
for new zope-related egg releases and run their test suite in a
sandbox, to notice breakages and email the guilty parties)
- run the correct setup.py command to build/register/upload the egg to
cheeseshop and/or www.zope.org
I'd be happy to work on such a script during the sprint, if someone
could help me figure out what exactly it should to do.
