doc/README.releasing says:

2) put out a -rcx (x=1; x!=right; x++)
to do this I just do a 'make dist' and mv the tar.gz file to the right
name.

I created this file based on some terse notes from Brian. I know what
"make dist" means, and I think I can follow the directions. But what the
heck is

put out a -rcx (x=1; x!=right; x++)

?

Second question is about automake, I think. I'd like to add the UG's sgml
and html to the distribution tarball. IOW, when someone does "make
install", I'd like the User Guide to be installed (in HTML form) in
@prefix@/share/freetds/userguide/html (I'm open to suggestions about the
proper directory). If he finds something there he'd like to correct or
amplify, he can edit doc/userguide.sgml in the source tree and submit a
patch.

At the present time, there is a handcrafted doc/Makefile that generates
the HTML and tars it up in preparation for posting at freetds.org.

Anyone want to help me adjust the makefile.am or whatever?

Thanks.
