Description

Once all the scheduled 2.0 issues are closed I can make a 2.0 release.
See RM #691, RM #538, RM #427 and RM #348 for examples of making the release.
Ironman will not be released with Harkonnen.

The Dev Platform and all System package collections (RM #894) must be archived and compressed (RM #782).

Steps to release

  1. Tag all repos
    1. Add dry-run option to tagging to show what would happen for each repo without doing it, to make sure this still works.

    1. Dev platform + System package collections
    2. rpi1 & rpi2 (see matrix)

    4. Don't include source or staging archives anymore!

  8. Generate changelog: MakeChangelog.sh in metabuild
  9. Write up announcement
    1. add it to News (as in this example)
    2. Announce to RPi Forums
    3. Announce to eLinux.org
    4. Post to
