Yo dawg. I heard you like notes, so I read the notes in the notes so you can release your release.

 * rework configglue to read the configuration more like optparse, with
    a --dump option to produce the ini-style config file
+
+HOWTO do a release:
+
+ * edit setup.py and set the correct version number
+ * verify that setup.py sdist generates a tarball and you are completely confident
+   that all the contents of the tarball are correct (any new files are there, etc.)
+ * run python setup.py sdist register upload, you will be prompted to login to pypi
+   and the new release is registered and uploaded.
+ * To also upload to launchpad:
+   - manage-credentials create -c ubuntu-dev-tools -l 2 (only if you don't have this already)
+   - lp-project-upload configglue 0.9pre1 configglue-0.9pre1.tar.gz (substituting correct versions)
+ * Prepare a new ubuntu package from the tarball.
