[Sugar-devel] Get Books ready to release

[James Simmons]

Here is my checklist for Get Books Activity:

Checklist - maintainer

* check version of latest tarball release in
download.sugarlabs.org/sources/sucrose/fructose/ or
download.sugarlabs.org/sources/honey/,

    Latest version is 19.

* check for a release version git tag, e.g. v34,

    There are no Git tags for this Activity

*  correlate with activity_version metadata in activity/activity.info,

    Updated to version 20

*  look for commits after any of these, in either;
        master branch of repository at sugarlabs,
        any other branches,
        any other forks,
        orphaned repositories with the same bundle_id value, using GitHub
or Google Search,
        deprecated repositories at git.sugarlabs.org,

    Nothing like this found.

* review and merge all pull requests,

    I looked at the other pull requests. There were two that attempted to
make the application\
    work under Python 3. They ran into the same problems with feedparser.py
and Python 3 not having
    sgmllib that I did. I fixed those problems by using a later version
(but not current) version
    of feedparser that included its own version of sgmllib.

* apply all desired commits, making pull requests if review is needed,

    Done

* apply any translate.sugarlabs.org changes, e.g. using a download script,
    if there is a po/*.pot file, regenerate using python setup.py genpot,
review the changes, and commit,
    notify our translation-community manager @leonardcj if the POT file
changes contain new or changed
    strings,

    No translated strings were affected by this update.

* update the README.md file if necessary,

    Just did that. *This required a second pull request as the first was
already done.*

* write release notes for the NEWS file, change the activity_version
metadata in activity/activity.info, commit, and git tag the version,

    Done

* update the activity documentation in the help-activity repository,

    Not needed. The Activity works the same as it always did.

* for activities that include a tarball release, or where Fedora or Debian
packages may be made, create a tarball using python setup.py dist_source,
and upload tarball to download.sugarlabs.org using shell account,

   * I have no such account.*

* create bundle using python setup.py dist_xo, and test that it can be
installed by Browse,

   * I have not tested this.*

* rebase any other maintained branches or pull requests, such as those for
past or future versions of Python, or past releases of Fedora, Ubuntu or
libraries.

    *The other pull requests appear to be abandoned. They could be closed.*

* for Python 3 Activities, copy the bundle to ~activities-v4/bundles,
remove any other old versions of the bundle from ~activities-v4/bundles,
and trigger a rebuild of the static site using rebuild-aslo command, verify
if your bundle is visible on https://v4.activities.sugarlabs.org . For more
information, it is recommended to take a look at the Activities4 wiki page

   *I don't think this is something I have the ability to do.*

I will make similar lists for the Read Activity (minor bug fix),
GetIABooks, and Sugar Commander when I have time.

Thanks.
