Now I can do something like
make zdoreleaseall creating ZWiki-0.9.3.tgz release on zope.org uploading ZWiki-0.9.3.tgz configuring ZWiki-0.9.3.tgz properties submitting ZWiki-0.9.3.tgz to the catalog creating ZWiki-0.9.3-released news item on zope.org configuring ZWiki-0.9.3-released properties submitting ZWiki-0.9.3-released to the catalog
Here are the makefile recipes with the magic curl incantations. A zope.org entry in ~/.netrc is assumed.
