Do we really, really still need Sourceforge? I have been looking at automation, and I’d really love to get rid of unnecessary distribution channels.

I think TCW22 held up pretty well; the only thing I would say is the #16 (make the SourceForge release the default download) could be moved to the end, because it takes at least 10 minutes for your upload to show up on SourceForge, so you either skip that step and come back to it (perhaps forgetting), or pause for 10 minutes to wait. If it were moved to the end, you'd be able to actually do it by the time you got to it.

We were indeed all ready to go, including having the required packages already built and available on Jenkins. We did have to fix two bugs in the tei-install.sh script (https is required to pull the packages from Jenkins--it failed with http; and there was a duplicate slash in the Jenkins paths). But that took very little time. What took time was simply taking care that we did things exactly right, and I would hope that we wouldn't move that much faster even with familiarity.

Cheers, Martin

This morning Martin & I released Stylesheets 7.50.1 on GitHub, Sourcefoge, and as the Debian packages. We did not release a new oXygen plug-in, as the bug that was fixed was part of the commandline `transformtei` script, which oXygen does not use to run the stylesheets. We (actually, Martin gets the credit) realized that our previous concern about the `tei-install.sh` program with respect to the oXygen plug-in was incorrect, so closed that ticket. Worth noting it took us nearly an hour, even though we had all the pieces ready to rock-and-roll. If we were doing this every week, it could be done a whole lot faster. But infamiliarity and insecurity makes it a slow process. Martin -- are there any updates we would recommend to TCW 22?
