# Release process
0. Create a new 'milestone' for the next release and move all issues present in the
current release milestone.
1. Verification of release notes: ensure that release notes ([NEWS](NEWS)) exist
for this release, and include all significant changes since last release.
2. Update of release date in [NEWS](NEWS), and bump of version number in
[configure.ac](configure.ac) as well as soname numbers in [m4/hooks.m4](m4/hooks.m4).
3. make distcheck
4. git tag -s $(VERSION). The 3.6.12 was including both the 3.6.12 and
gnutls_3_6_12 tags, but it may make sense to only use the version from
now on.
5. git push && git push --tags
6. make dist && gpg --sign --detach gnutls-$(VERSION).tar.xz
7. scp gnutls-$(VERSION).tar.xz* ftp.gnupg.org:/home/ftp/gcrypt/gnutls/v3.6/
8. Create and send announcement email based on previously sent email to the list and
[NEWS](NEWS) file.
9. Create a NEWS entry at [web-pages repository](https://gitlab.com/gnutls/web-pages/-/tree/master/news-entries),
and/or [a security advisory entry](https://gitlab.com/gnutls/web-pages/-/tree/master/security-entries)
if necessary. The NEWS entry is usually pointing to the announcement email.
A commit auto-generates the [gnutls web site](https://gnutls.gitlab.io/web-pages/)
which is mirrored twice a day by www.gnutls.org.
10. Use the @GnuTLS twitter account to announce the release.
11. Close the current release milestone.
