'''Note: See ReleaseProcessDraft for a more specific (and updated) list.'''

Brief approximation:

 * Ensure Alpha name and number have been updated in [source:ps/trunk/binaries/data/mods/public/gui/session//top_panel/label.xml label.xml], [source:ps/trunk/binaries/data/mods/public/gui/pregame/mainmenu.xml mainmenu.xml], [source:ps/trunk/binaries/data/mods/public/mod.json mod.json], and [source:ps/trunk/source/ps/Pyrogenesis.cpp Pyrogenesis.cpp].
 * Feature freeze + regenerate the translation templates via [source:ps/trunk/source/tools/i18n/updateTemplates.py updateTemplates.py] and the translations (for backup purposes) via [source:ps/trunk/source/tools/i18n/pullTranslations.py pullTranslations.py]
 * Test for release blocking bugs (minimum 5 days, promised to the translators)
 * Commit freeze + pull final version of translations for this version and check for vandalism
 * Edit the [source:/ps/trunk/source/tools/dist/remove-incomplete-translations.sh remove-incomplete-translations.sh] script to include all languages that need to be in the release (Include only >90% languages supported by our fonts and font system - see progress [https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/0ad/ on Transifex])
 * Test some more
 * Change the MUC room for the lobby in [source:ps/trunk/binaries/data/config/default.cfg default.cfg] and on the server. (Maybe reset the rankings)
 * Change the bot's welcome message to notify users that a new version is available.
 * Check that SVN compiles and runs on Linux
 * Check that SVN compiles and runs on Linux (Gentoo) with `--without-pch`
 * Check that SVN compiles and runs on Windows
 * Check that SVN compiles and runs on OS X
 * Run Windows autobuilder (or build manually with VS 2008 if autobuild is down - update [source:/ps/trunk/build/svn_revision svn_revision.txt] first!)
 * Update public trunk checkout
 * Ensure it is clean (`svn st --no-ignore`)
 * Check that debug/unnecessary files are excluded from the Windows installer script [source:/ps/trunk/source/tools/dist/0ad.nsi source/tools/dist/0ad.nsi]
 * Run [source:/ps/trunk/source/tools/dist/build.sh source/tools/dist/build.sh]
 * Build OS X app bundle:
   * Requires OS X and Xcode
   * Read documentation in [source:ps/trunk/build/workspaces/build-osx-bundle.sh build-osx-bundle.sh], update options if necessary (defaults work with Xcode 4.2+ and Lion)
   * Run `build-osx-bundle.sh --release`, by default it creates a 64-bit 10.7+ compatible bundle, `~/0ad-export/0ad.app`
   * Package app into DMG (as outlined [http://mac101.net/content/how-to/how-to-create-dmg-art-for-fancy-application-installations/ here] and [http://el-tramo.be/guides/fancy-dmg/ here])
     * Use Disk Utility to create an uncompressed DMG large enough to hold `0ad.app`
     * Set background image, `build/resources/dmgbackground.png`
     * Copy `0ad.app` and Applications shortcut, arrange icons, set folder view options as desired
     * Create a bzip2-compressed DMG with [http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man1/hdiutil.1.html hdiutil]: `hdiutil convert 0ad.dmg -format UDBZ -o 0ad-[version]-alpha-osx64`
 * Test on Windows:
   * Delete `%localappdata%\0ad\cache`
   * Extract release
   * Run `pyrogenesis.exe`, check everything seems to work
   * Run `Atlas.bat`, check everything seems to work
   * Delete `%localappdata%\0ad\cache`
   * Build Debug version, check everything seems to work
   * Run `test` project
 * Test on Linux:
   * Delete `~/.cache/0ad`
   * Extract release
   * Build with `config=debug`, run `test_dbg`, run game, run editor
   * Build with `config=release`, run `test`, run game, run editor
 * Test on OS X:
   * Delete `~/Library/Caches/0ad/`
   * Mount release DMG
   * Run 0ad and test that it works on e.g. Snow Leopard and Lion
   * Test Atlas (main menu > Tools & Options > Scenario Editor)
   * Delete `~/Library/Caches/0ad/`
 * Update OBS packages [https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=0ad&project=games 0ad], [https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=0ad-data&project=games 0ad-data]:
   * Update version numbers in `0ad.changes`, `0ad.dsc`, `0ad.spec`
   * Replace `.tar.gz` with new version
 * Update [https://launchpad.net/~wfg/+archive/0ad PPA packages] (ping ricotz on IRC):
   * Find an Ubuntu machine.
   * Copy `source/tools/dist/ubuntu/` into a place for packaging
   * Update `changelog` files
   * Update `build.sh` version number
   * Run `build.sh`. (Optionally disable the `debuild -b` lines because they're not needed, we only require the source packages.)
   * `dput ppa:wfg/0ad <source.changes>`

== Building on EC2

Sign up to EC2. Create an EC2 instance (Ubuntu 14.04, 64-bit, c3.xlarge). ssh into it (as user 'ubuntu').
{{{

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install zip cmake nsis p7zip-full

# Standard dependencies for building the game:

nano build.sh
# change PREFIX 
./build.sh
rsync -avP 0ad-*.{tar.gz,tar.xz,exe} philip@zaynar.co.uk:/var/www/releases/rc/
}}}
Then delete the EC2 instance so you don't keep paying for it.

The whole process takes about 2 hours.
