HOWTO formally announce a release¶

• Alfredo announces to QA Lead, Project Lead & Release manager once the final packages are cut
• Release manager to create the release notes on the master branch
• Make corrections to components as much as possible in the release notes for easier tracking.
• Generate a changelog which could be done via
  

  git log tags/<prev.release>..tags/<current.release>
  

  
  And submit the pr to master; on docs/changelog/<release-version>.txt
• Once docs.ceph.com updates with the above files, and the right urls are checked, do a blog post on ceph.com with the correct links, this can be copy-pasted from the html rendered release notes
• Announce the email preferably with the plain text version of release notes, to, ceph-announce, ceph-users, ceph-maintainers, ceph-devel lists
