The last couple weeks, I worked on converting and writing new manpages 
in docbook, worked on a BIND 10 guide, did some incomplete xfrin 
testing, looked at python tests, had a blog article published, worked on 
makefile cleanup for creating tarballs, miscellaneous release 
engineering, wrote release announcement, created release branch, did a 
release, and more.

Some of my upcoming tasks to work on:

- update guide to add bindctl examples

- update guide to match changed and new configure options. (I will 
continue to document old also for the released version.)

- work on configure / build so xfrout won't fail

- work on build systems to install more dependencies

- create second autobuild specification (no boost libs and with boost 
libs)

- create third autobuild specification to build tarball and check it and 
run tests from it

- clean up the on-commit autobuilder/tester to use the same autobuild 
framework (which will result in an improve HTML report for latest builds 
versus the long running list of old builds). Also make it easier to do 
autobuilds for different branches and easier to find results.

- remove old builds, automate that.

- test the python library for libdns (does this have python-style 
documentation?)

- test and document xfrin

- test and document xfrout

- upload the latest python developer docs

- upload the latest doxygen docs (separate for each c++ project)

- research Trac tables plugin (work with larissa)

- test Trac masterticket plugin

- work on make targets for python tests

- discuss the releng steps that were purposely skipped, accidently 
skipped, problems, successes, etc ...
