Hi,

I've been working on the "make tarball" & related in xtla.

I've now got a cron job uploading a snapshot of the mainline every
nights on http://download.gna.org/xtla-el/. Please, read the end of
docs/HACKING file for details. The documentation is also online on
gna.org.

Stefan, I suggest that you remove the documentation and the snapshot
from your website (or better: that you replace it by a redirection to
gna.org) to avoid confusion.

The big advantage of putting files on gna.org is that a maintainer
change is easy, without affecting the users. My cron script is
available in the script directory of xtla's source tree. If someone
else becomes the maintainer, he just has to upload his ssh public key
on gna, copy my script and roughly s/moy/his_login/ (and off course,
tag the main archive). That won't make any difference for users
downloading the tarball.

The release tarball will be generated in a few days, with a simple

make RELEASE_ID=0.9 tarball

And files will be uploaded to

http://download.gna.org/xtla-el/xtla-0.9.tar.gz
http://download.gna.org/xtla-el/docs/xtla-0.9.html

If everyone's happy with this, I'll also update the wiki page.
