================
* Make sure that all new PO files are checked in.

(Mainly config.guess and config.sub).

make -C doc update-source-from-gnupg-2
* [1.4 and 2.0] Copy needed texinfo files from trunk.

* Get the previous tarball and run "mkdiff gnupg".
You might need to set a different signature key than mine. mkdiff
has an option for this.
* If you are satisfied with the result commit a tag for the release.
* If you are satisfied with the result commit a tag for the release
and push the changes.
