Krzysztof, In your opinion what are the major pain points?
To me one pain point is actually having to upload the zip onto sf.net. Is there a reason why we still need to do this? Can we instead tag the teamcity build and expose the zip as a link on the website?

All the (many) steps are manual and require a lot of time to complete. It took me half of the day to get it all working and out the door. That's not how it should be. I chatted with Roelof and he proposed that we should look into automating as much of the process as possible. I couldn't agree more. We should also change how we assing build numbers. Currently we use autoincremented builds count from TeamCity which has the drawback that if we release several version of the same project (for .NET 3.5, 4.0, 4.0 CP, two versions of SIlverlight, possibly Mono in the future) all of them have different numbers. For the release I manually set up the counter to be the same for all builds but we should have it done automatically. This is a major issue and to keep shipping the software on a sustainable pace we need to streamline and automate it a lot. Comments and ideas welcome.
