Hello Sage-Devel,

Since Michael has mentioned that he's going to be stepping down as
release manager, we're going to distribute the work of release
management on a rotating basis. Many Sage developers are ready to do
release management, including Mike Hansen, Martin Albrecht, Robert
Miller, Craig Citro, Robert Bradshaw, Carl Witty, Nick Alexander, and
William Stein. Mike Hansen and William Stein have already done this
for the tail end of the 4.0 release cycle, and more people will start
to handle the job as time goes on.

Mike Hansen has already started on sage-4.0.1, and a list of the
planned features is available on the wiki
(http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/milestone/sage-4.0.1). As far as
the planning of future releases, what would people find the most
convenient? We will definitely continue to use trac to organize this,
but would people also find it useful to have threads on sage-devel
with a list of major features and who's in charge of the release?
Should we start a "sage-release" mailing list for planning releases
and discussing build issues? Does anyone have any other ideas for how
to coordinate release efforts?
