-----------------------------------------------------------------
-This section explains how to manage release files using the
-file-management interface at Sourceforge.

+Part 11: Do post-release wrap-up
+-----------------------------------------------------------------
+This section explains the "wrap up" steps you need to do
+following an official release.
+
+1. Open the VERSION file.
+
+2. Change the content of the PreviousRelease element to the
+ version number you have just released.
+
+3. Change the content of the PreviousReleaseRevision element to
+ the number of the repository revision from which you built the
+ release.
+
+4. Change the content of the fm:Version element to the version
+ number of the next anticipated release, with the string "-pre"
+ appended; for example:
+
+ <fm:Version>1.73.1-pre</fm:Version>
+
+9. Check the VERSION file back in.
+
+ svn commit \
+ -m "Restored VERSION file to snapshot state" VERSION
