Thanks for starting this.
A couple of things:
- The PR title of "docs: release v0.17.0" confused me a little. I didn't immediately map it to "release process updates from 0.17.0". I thought it might more generic a docs updates for 0.17 (not just about our release process). Maybe rename to "docs: release process updates from 0.17.0" for clarity?
- I think we need to tighten up steps around our changelog. I don't see anything that is making sure the changelog is filled in. For example, what we have right now doesn't hit on the highlights. I think ideally we should do this before the RC, or else it's really unclear for anyone why they should try out the RC.

I updated the link because in the latest comment I added context for why folks were being pinged and how they get removed.
For example, while @b5 is still absolutely in the community, QRI is no-more and I don't think need to be pinged about Kubo releases.

There is no way to link to the blogpost as it's just a redirect to the GitHub release.

I removed my raw notes from the issue template - 4d1d0b7. I don't think we need them here in this form. I'm going to use them to create more user-friendly automation during 0.18. |
