[tei-council] streamlining release procedures

[Martin Holmes]

Wonderful work by Sebastian!

My Jinks, which doesn't do kindlegen (nasty closed-source proprietary 
etc. etc.) is down to 23 minutes. But I think we'll end up putting 
kindlegen on mine eventually, because otherwise it's not a true 
alternative source for our products.

Cheers,
Martin
