 So what I do is nearly the same as updating:
 
-0) check licensing, sources [doc especially], etc.
-	If you want/can PLEASE update the TeX Catalogue entry or send
-	us tex-live@tug.org, debian-tex@lists.debian.org
-	the relevant information: 
-		- version of package checked
-		- date checked
-		- type of license
-		- where the license statement can be found (filename, eg README)
-
-1) run ctan2tl.
-
-2) inspect output of where the files ended up.
-
-2a) if good, then good. Run with --place, add to tpm-ctan-check, and
-    -- the only different thing -- add it to some collection-*.tpm.
-    Commit.
-    	Adding to a collection should only be necessary if you add
-	a new packages. The old ones should already be contained in one
-	collection. But you can check ...
-
-2b) if bad, then bad.  Hack ctan2tds as necessary, maybe just
-    MAKEflatten, maybe a one-off routine, whatever is needed.  Repeat.

+0) Add /pat/to/texlive/svn/repository/Build/tools to your path
+
+1) Choose a package, ie a tpm, best for now one in texmf-dist/tpm/ which
+   is NOT already in tpm-ctan-check. You can get a list of the
+   not treated packages by calling
+        tpm-ctan-check --list-not-treated-tpm
+
+
+2) check licensing, sources [doc especially], etc.
+   if you have the CTAN archive available you can call
+        CTAN=/pat/to/CTAN tlpkginfo --ctan-dir <package>
+   to get the location of the package.
+        (optional, but would be great)
+        If you want/can PLEASE update the TeX Catalogue entry or send
+        us tex-live@tug.org, debian-tex@lists.debian.org
+        the relevant information:
+                - version of package checked
+                - date checked
+                - type of license
+                - where the license statement can be found (filename, eg
+                  README)
+
+3) run ctan2tl and inspect the output, please see details on the above
+   website for a short explanation how to interpret the output
+
+3a) if good, then good:
+        - add the package name to ctan-tpm-check (yeah, one more)
+        - call ctan2tl --place <package>
+        - submit
+
+3b) if bad, then bad:
+        Hack ctan2tds as necessary, which can be everything:
+        maybe just MAKEflatten, maybe something else.
+        Or just inform us here and we will take a look.
+
+4) continue with another package.
+
+
+If you want to add a NEW package without a tpm, do more or less the same
+as above, only in stel 3a) add it also to one of the collections, or ask
+us where to add it.
