I am looking through

http://darcs.net/Development/ReleaseManagement

and feeling overwhelmed by the amount of things to do. Change the wiki?
I agree the top page should annouce 2.16.1 but repeat all the info in
the CHANGELOG? Change milestones in the BTS? Never done that.

One suggestion I took up is to copy _darcs/prefs/email from branch-2.14
to branch-2.16.

Cheers
