Since we'd been there before I take it the .0 in here (which isn't in the
changes to the other two files) is deliberate now? Clearly I continue to
think it shouldn't be put there together with -rc.

But in docs/process/{release-technician-checklist, 
xen-release-management}.pandoc .0 is used.

So probably then we have to update docs correspondingly to avoid confusion.

Oh, that's because I cribbed this by looking at the recent releases.

The documentation leaves ~everything to be desired...

I can drop the .0 here, although I shan't repost just for that.

It turns out the .0 is necessary to build the tarball in the way the
other tooling expects.  I'm going to bodge it for now to get RC1 out,
but we are going to have to change *somthing* before getting to RC2.
