Recently in one of the thread I saw somebody mentioning 'automating the release process of sympy' to be a GSoC idea for 2013 and also vaguely discussed with Aaron on IRC channel. I want to work on this idea. I have submitted a pull request <https://github.com/sympy/sympy/pull/1703> and waiting for the review.
I have read the discussion in the following thread https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/sympy/UfNhyFv-oMg/discussion . i think the goals of the automating process are broadly the following: -> Run all the tests mentioned in New Release page<https://github.com/sympy/sympy/wiki/new-release> -> Change the version numbers and create tar balls of the source -> Upload the tar balls to necessary sites -> Upload new documentation for the new release at http://docs.sympy.org -> Change year in necessary places at the start of every year and other miscellaneous things I have also looked at numpy-vendor <https://github.com/certik/numpy-vendor>which Ondrej has suggested. I have been familiarising myself with Fabric and Vagrant softwares currently for this idea. I am just writing this thread to see the general acceptance of this idea as a part of GSoC in our community. I haven't presently planned on how to implement this but if this idea gets accepted I will write an in-depth proposal. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sympy" group.
