For each release of WTP, there are a few book keeping tasks unrelated to planning, development, and building, that also need tending to. They should be recorded here so they're not forgotten.
Tasks for Major and Minor Releases

- New and Noteworthy collected
- Maintenance branch created and wtp-releng notified (with the newer build system, is this mandatory?)
