The following is a list of requirements that need to be satisfied when creating a release:

• Create a change log with clean, readable descriptions, referencing tickets wherever possible. See Git log parser, for a script to help generate change logs.
• Changes must be reflected in all written material prior to release.
• The code must be tested.
• The code should always be made available in the following archive formats: .zip, .tar.gz and .tar.bz2.
• Create a tag in git. git tag -a -m '[message]' [version #]
• Version numbers bumped:
  • /cake/VERSION.txt
  • /cake/config/config.php
• Website Updates:
  • If the version is a minor/major release, make a new milestone in lighthouse.
  • Download button updated
  • Update any "special notices" (currently: Extra Hot ... at top of site)
  • Cache cleared to ensure the above take effect.
• Post release announcement to the google group and bakery
• CakePHP Account to announce via Twitter
