There is a 0.90.1 tarball that I rolled on terror. It would be nice if some people could take this and see what's wrong with it. It's now just a matter of "make_release". Version numbers are grep'ed out of configure.in. A bunch of checks are run at the beginning so you don't get half way through before it bombs. You should be able to run it from anywhere, I'd like to hear some confirmation on this point. If it is not being run from terror, scp will be used to copy the tarball. You need to be able to scp without passwords for this to work. It checks out a complete new tree in order to avoid any of the "already been configured" problems in the past. I would like to hear about problems and also I'd like to know if it works.
