Do we have a well-defined release process that is happening for each
release?  There were a few problems and differences with the August
release.  None of these are really huge, but they do tend to break
things for people that rely on the release tarballs for automated tests.
The fact that LTP has gone to releasing once every two months also makes
it more of a problem, since those affected will either need to make
changes that they'll likely need to roll back in two months, or roll
their own tarball.

The fact that make autotools had not been run has already been pointed
out.  The release was also done only as a .tgz rather than bzip2 like
the previous release.  I don't really care so much on that, but
consistency would be good.  Also the .git directory was left behind,
making the download size much larger than it should have been.

Any chance there might be an interim release to correct these?

Thanks,
Paul Larson

	I'll create the necessary Makefile targets for this. Subrata needs to handle the rest.

Hmm. My mistake. I will following the bzip2 pattern and remove the .git
and make sure than make autotools is done for this release.

I will try for this in another day or 2.
