I noticed that the first step in creating a release is

___ Do a CVS update with the -A flag, e.g.
    % cvs update -A

I would suggest adding the -d and -P flags to this command (so cvs update -APd). The -d flag says to create directories that are in the repository but not in the checked-out version (handy for new directories), and the -P flag says to delete (prune) empty directories from the checked-out version (handy for directories that have become empty because all files were deleted).
