<jstaniek>   hi, looking for a volunteer who would manage release scripts for repos (kexi, kdb, 
kproperty, kreport), there are no scripts no tarballs with source/translations; until there's a 
workforce releases would only happen on GIT
<tosky>  jstaniek: just to understand, do you want to write another set of release script?
<jstaniek>   tosky: I'd like to outsource 99% of that :)
<jstaniek>   especially i18n
<jstaniek>   are release scripts created by forking some existing ones? (these days)
<tosky>  kde-dev-scripts, createtarball/create_tarball_kf5.rb
<jstaniek>   yep.. kf5 scripts look as the closest fit 
<boud>   jstaniek: that one worked out of the box for krita
<jstaniek>   very good
<jstaniek>   -- trying to push the betas out close to Akademy
<Riddell>    jstaniek: kde:releaseme is your friend
<Riddell>    jstaniek: one simple command to make all your tars
<tosky>  Riddell: I think it has some issues with translated documentation
<Riddell>    always works for me
<tosky>  Riddell: can you check the last changes in create_tarball_kf5? It was changed to 
properly use ki18n_install and kdoctools_install, maybe you can apply them to releaseme
<tosky>  Riddell: it didn't work,  I think I told you some time ago, translation of khelpcenter 
documentation was not properly placed when khelpcenter was part of Plasma
<tosky>  boud: ehm, about that, at leat in the last krita-3.0.99.91.tar.gz one of the po is 
missing (kritacrashhandler.po), I think you may want to add it to the config.ini file for 
create_tarball_kf5
<jstaniek>   honestly I was trying to find official recommendation docs and found mostly 
https://community.kde.org/Policies/Application_Lifecycle 
https://community.kde.org/Release_Team/Release_Process
<jstaniek>   I know many projects have own scripts and I'd like to avoid this
<Riddell>    jstaniek: I don't think there are any official recommended ways to do it, as 
plasma release dude I recommend releaseme
<jstaniek>   Riddell: very good, thanks; as there is 2 weeks of time recommended for the 
release process I think I'd be announcing availability of a preview version on GIT, blogging, 
get opinions and try the scripts
<Riddell>    jstaniek: for plasma I make beta tars 2 weeks before which is a test incase the 
tars are broken in some way or I've missed something out, that's also the time I make the 
stable branches (which is also done by releaseme)
