I have a package on CRAN and now have a modest update that's passing

Is there a mechanism on R-forge for updating an existing CRAN
package, analogous to the 'submit to cran' link on the R-forge
package page, or should I just follow the instructions at
http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/policies.html for FTP upload?
If there were a "Submit to CRAN" button, that would be the method.
But I think that button has gone away, so the description on that page
is the way to go.
The "Submit to CRAN" button on that page is hidden by default but
is exposed by clicking on the "Show/Hide extra info" button right below
where it gives "Build Status" and "R install command". (I had trouble
finding the "Submit to CRAN" button for a while after it became hidden.
You need "Build status: Current". Also, at least the for last
submissions I made, the CRAN maintainers did NOT accept updates if there
were Warnings or Notes in the "Package Checks"; these warnings are also
hidden until you click "Show/Hide extra info".)
