 Upload the files to SourceForge. This can be done via the web interface or just

 being "default downloads" for the appropriate platforms (.zip or .exe for MSW,
 .tar.bz2 for everything else) as otherwise SourceForge would continue to suggest
 people to download old files.

+docs/release_files.mdwn and docs/release_binaries.mdwn files. They need to be
