* README: Updated xsane link.
	* configure configure.in backend/dll.c backend/dll.desc
	  backend/net.c backend/net.desc include/sane/config.h.in
	  Yet another change in the version system for dll and net.
	  For sane_init return the version of the package but use
	  own internal version number in the source (printed with
	  debugging enabled) and in *.desc. The internal versions
	  of both net and dll are set to 1.0.1. Please increase the
	  build number with every change on the source files.
	* doc/realeases.txt -> doc/releases.txt. Fixed spelling error.
	  Added entries about sane-backends.html, sane.ps, man pages,
	  platforms page.

+This text summarizes some points to pay attention to when a new realease
+of sane-backends should be made.
+
+Before the release:
+
+* configure.in: increase version number
+* configure.in: set --disable-warnings as default
+* configure: recreate
+* net.c net.desc dll.c dll.desc: update version numbers
+* NEWS: update and enter date of release
+* sane-backends.lsm: update
+* ChangeLog: set release marker
+* final compilation test

+Making the release:
+
+* remove all CVS files from directories (CVS, .cvsignore etc.)
+* make tar.gz and sane-backends-x.y.z.lsm
+* upload both to mostang.com
+* make sane-backends.html and upload to mostang.com
+* update SANE standard and man pages on mostang.com
+* check and update platforms page on mostang.com
+* write announcements on mostang.com and sane-devel, maybe others
+  (e.g. freshmeat)
