It's OK with me, but I'd like someone else to be the release manager. I've 
made some progress documenting the actual release procedure, and am pretty 
sure someone else could carry it out without much difficulty.

They would have to have certain tools.  A zip file creation program, a 
.tar.gz program, and some kind of an automatic ftp program for the actual 
web site update.

It took me 5 or 6 hours to complete the 1.29.0 release procedure, but that 
is mostly because I only have a single channel ISDN line. I'd hope that 
would drop to less than 2 hours for someone with a high-speed connection.
