It's in branching.html.  Of course making more of this (and
releasing.html) automated, e.g. with markers in various files of where to
change and scripts to change them, would be a good idea, as otherwise
steps are liable to get missed (e.g. the 3.3.2 release tag isn't mentioned
in cvs.html).  (branching.html is still out of date with regard to
snapshots from multiple branches.)
