+o Dump projectb for backup purposes.
+o get everything listed, dak control-suite -l proposed-updates > p-u.list
+o add everything to stable:  cat p-u.list |dak control-suite --add stable
+o remove everything from proposed-updates, dak control-suite -r proposed-updates < p-u.list
+o sync with stable RM if there is any propup needed. do it, if so.
+o ask rms if they have RMs to do.
+o If you installed a debian-installer upload; migrate the relevant
+  installer-*/$release directory from proposed-updates to stable.
+  (Including potentially removing older versions)
+o Update version number in README, README.html and dists/README
+o Update the 'Debian<n>.<n>r<n>' symlink in dists/
+o Clean up dists/stable/ChangeLog (add header, basically)
+o Update fields in suite table in postgresql (see below)

+o Run 'dak make-suite-file-list --force -s stable'
+o Run 'dak generate-filelist -s stable'
+o Run apt-ftparchive generate apt.conf.stable
