+This is a script for helping me publish, in the hopes of getting more into the
+whole "release early and often" mantra.  It takes care of the generation of the
+project website and publishing this to assorted.sf.net, and it also packages up
+and releases the software package.
+
+In both website generation and packaging, the process involves generation of a
+final README from the source README.  For releasing a package, the place to
+upload the files is determined by the package type (most things default to
+Google Code, but Python packages are pushed to PyPI, for instance).
