-This document covers how to prepare subreleases of SCons--that is,
-releases numbered with X.Y.Z format, such as 0.94.1, 1.0.1, etc.
-
-If you need to prepare a release (X.Y, such as 0.93, 1.0, etc.), then
-see the document HOWTO/release.txt.
-
-Things to do to release a new X.Y.Z version of SCons:
-
-    BEFORE STARTING THE SUB-BRANCH:
-    
-        Update the user's guide on the parent
-
-            sh bin/docdiff
-
-            sh bin/docupdate
-
-    START THE NEW SUB-BRANCH FOR SUBRELEASE
-
-        aenbr -p scons.0.{94} {1}
-
-        aenc -p scons.0.{94}.{1}
-
-            Call it something like,
-            "Prepare a new sub-release for XYZ."
-            Cause = internal_enhancement.
-            Exempt it from all tests (*_exempt = true).
-
-        ae_p scons.0.{94}.{1}
-
-        aedb 100

-        aecd
-
-        # Change the hard-coded package version numbers
-        # in the following files.
-        aecp README
-        vi README
-
-        aecp SConstruct
-        vi SConstruct
-
-        aecp QMTest/TestSCons.py
-        vi QMTest/TestSCons.py
-
-        # Read through and update the README files if necessary
-        [optional] aecp README
-        [optional] vi README
-
-        [optional] aecp src/README.txt
-        [optional] vi src/README.txt
-
-        # Prepare src/CHANGES.txt
-        aecp src/CHANGES.txt
-        vi src/CHANGES.txt
-
-            change the release line to reflect
-            the new subrelease
-
-            date -R the new subrelease
-
-            add an explanatory not after the subrelease line:
-
-                    NOTE:  This is a pre-release of 0.{95}
-                    for testing purposes.  When 0.{95} is
-                    released, all these changes will show
-                    up as 0.95 changes.
-
-        # Prepare src/RELEASE.txt
-        aecp src/RELEASE.txt
-        vi src/RELEASE.txt
-
-            date -R the release only if necessary
-
-            Read through and edit appropriately.
-
-            Can probably keep most of the existing text
-
-            Add any new known problems

-
-            date -R the new subrelease
-
-        # Now build and prepare the release itself.
