+Publications Repository
+=======================
+
+Each publication should get its own branch and is a living document.
+Each branch should have a README.rst file where the first line is the
+title of the presentation.
+
+Each time a publication is presented or published, the branch should
+be tagged (with a signed, annotated tag). The first line of the tag
+message should be the title of the event or publication. For example,
+if the presentation "overview" was given at LCA 2013, you might tag it
+with:
+
+ git tag -s -m "linux.conf.au, 2013" overview
+
+The 'make-index' script will create an index page based on index.html,
+and all current branches and tags in the repo and their README.rst
+files.
