+
+On [the GitLab CE issue tracker on GitLab.com](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/) create an issue titled "GitLab X.X regressions" add the following text:
+
+This is a meta issue to discuss possible regressions in this monthly release and any patch versions.
+Please do not raise issues directly in this issue but link to issues that might warrant a patch release.
+The decision to create a patch release or not is with the release manager who is assigned to this issue.
+The release manager will comment here about the plans for patch releases.
+
+Assign the issue to the release manager and /cc all the core-team members active on the issue tracker. If there are any known bugs in the release add them immediately.
