Hi Mark,

I meant the ant targets, both for source and binary distributions. If
you're looking for my notes on creating a release, here's a place to
look: http://trac.common-lisp.net/armedbear/wiki/ReleaseSteps

I've taken notes each time I created a release and I hope to make the
check list more and more complete.


Bye,

Erik.
