I started a PR here https://github.com/sympy/sympy/pull/12819
Anthony Scopatz and I are working on a new tool to replace the current release/fabfile.py https://github.com/ergs/rever. The existing script uses a Vagrant VM and fabric. What I would like to replace this with is a Docker image, that runs the rever script. Rever is designed to be a general releasing tool that lets you write the different release tasks as "activities" in a xonsh script. Xonsh, if you don't know, if a shell that mixes bash and Python, so it's basically Python but you can write shell commands anywhere that you would have a Python statement. If you want to help out, a good place to start would be to build a Docker container. All the dependencies that need to be installed on it are in the fabfile https://github.com/sympy/sympy/blob/master/release/fabfile.py. We need to be able to run everything in the Python versions we support (2.7, 3.3-3.6). I recommend using conda environments for everything if possible. I have the sympy name on dockerhub, and can give you access if you give me your username.
