 of the maintainer, there's a workflow creating an sdist.
 
 This sdist ought to be generated as follows:
-- navigate to the workflow run created for the commit you want to generate an
-  sdist for. Or, if none was created automatically then create one by navigating
-  to the Actions tab, selecting the "prepare release artifacts" workflow, and launching

+  sdist for. Or, if none was created automatically then launch
   a run using the "`workflow_dispatch` event trigger" that you will find there.

-- carefully sanity check the output of the "smoketest" in github UI.
+- carefully sanity check the output of the "smoketest" jobs in github UI.
   These can also be downloaded as an artifact for local inspection. A sanity check
-  would e.g. entail look at whether `posix_spawn.*` symbols are recognised and
-  configured correctly.

   then downloading the `sdist`. Upload it as a candidate and proceed as usual.
