 == Create the tarball ==
-Create a tarball to allow users to just compile and install. Run the following commands and substitute the ''XX'' versions properly. For example for etl the numbering is nowadays 0.04.13 and for synfig and synfigstudio numbering are nowadays 0.62.00.

 == Test before publishing ==
 * Test installed stuff. To run the installed synfigstudio from the tarball you've created you have to run directly from the command line:
-  $PREFIX/bin/synfigstudio
+  $HOME/local-synfig/bin/synfigstudio
-At this point there should be some battery of tster sifz files and scripts to run various error proof tests to be sure that the release don't have nasty bugs. Share the tarball with other people that have other OS and ask them to build and run the same tests. There is not exact  procedure for that. Maybe contact the {{l|People|People}} and ask them to do that job. This point is important for testing the release in different platforms, specially if there has been some changes that can have cross effects.
