This HOWTO describes good release practices for Linux
open-source projects. By following these practices, you will make it
as easy as possible for users to build your code and use it, and for
other developers to understand your code and cooperate with you to
improve it.
This document is a must-read for novice developers. Experienced
developers should review it when they are about to release a new
project. It will be revised periodically to reflect the evolution of
good-practice standards.
