I want tools! Actually, I just want one tool. 70% of the release process is 
repetition and that needs to be factored into a tool. This tool should have 
been written before the Zope trunk was blown into pieces, but it wasn't. :-(

There is no way that we will be able to support this many packages in the 
future, if we keep doing this manually. I have already spent days on doing 
eggs, when I really just wanted to code. :-(

Marius and I wrote down some notes what such a tool could do. I hope he will 
post them here.

Stephan
