Build files for stacks

For release purposes, a stack must contain two files in its top-level directory:

To build a source distribution of the stack, do this in the stack directory:

make package_source

You'll get a tarball of your stack in the same directory. This should be done in a fresh checkout, to avoid including build artifacts and other unwanted files in the tarball. It is preferred to use tools that automate release process (e.g., Willow Garage maintains a private set of tools for this purpose).
