[tei-council] New document describing release steps

[Martin Holmes]

I've made those changes, except the one to the tei-install.sh script. I 
agree that it's a good idea, but I'm slightly worried about what might 
happen if someone had inadvertently failed to update P5/VERSION 
correctly, and then ran the script. We should think about that a bit.

I've now published the document on the site. (GRRR.)

Does anyone have any objections to my editing TCW20 to remove the old 
release instructions and point to the new file?

Cheers,
Martin
