			When creating a release, it's important to tag or branch the Subversion repository with version information. In general branches are only for major releases (2.0, etc), while tags are made for each release. You can tag Subversion using a command such as:

			$ svn cp svn+ssh://<username>@svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/cctools/publisher/trunk svn+ssh://<username>@svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/cctools/publisher/tags/ccpublisher-1.9.3

			This will create a copy of the current repository trunk as a tag (in the example above for 2.0 beta 3). Note that this only tags changes which have been committed; changes which are in your local sandbox are '''not''' included in the tagged copy.

			Branching is performed in a similar fashion.

			$ svn cp svn+ssh://<username>@svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/cctools/publisher/trunk svn+ssh://<username>@svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/cctools/publisher/branches/ccpublisher-2.0

 The package creation process varies slightly for different platforms.  We '''will''' have scripts for this, we just haven't found the right tool.  Ideally something like Ant, but without the Java overhead.  Suggestions welcome.

Once the application is built, an installer must be created. ccPublisher uses [http://nsis.sourceforge.net NSIS] to create Windows installation packages. The script used to build the installer is deploy/win32/setup.nsi. If you are using Eclipse, the [http://eclipsensis.soureforge.net EclipseNSIS] plugin allows you to build the installer from within Eclipse. The [http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Developer_Center NSIS wiki] has documentation on other ways to use NSIS. After building the installer you'll be left with <code>setup.exe</code> in the working directory (<code>deploy/win32</code> under Eclipse).
