     "make release-publish", adding the excerpt from NEWS, your
     signature, followed by the standard "What is cairo" and "Where to
     get more information about cairo" blurbs from README, and finally
-    tacking on the detailed changelog-ish thing that gets mailed out
-    when you push the tag (but not the diffstat thing).
+    the shortlog of all changes since last release, generated by:
+
+	git shortlog X.Y.Z...
+
+    where X.Y.Z is the last released version.
 
 11) Edit the cairo wiki to add the announcement to the NEWS page and
     the front page. (just the parts before your signature).
