+about: Coordinate steps to publish a new release
+title: 'Checklist and coordination for v0.0.0 major/minor/patch release'
+labels: release
+assignees: '@publiclab/is-maintainers'
+---
+
+This template guides us through the steps of creating a new release, based on conversation and testing in [#1692](https://github.com/publiclab/image-sequencer/issues/1692).
+
+Discuss with @publiclab/is-maintainers if anything is ambiguous!
+
+<!-- NOTE: Change v0.0.0 to the appropriate release version -->
+
+* [x] open an issue using the "release" template with this checklist with title `Checklist and coordination for v0.0.0 major/minor/patch release` (see [semantic versioning](https://docs.npmjs.com/about-semantic-versioning/))
+* [ ] create a release [project](https://github.com/publiclab/image-sequencer/projects) from [this template](https://github.com/publiclab/image-sequencer/projects/5). You can copy a project from its menu.
+* [ ] compile release notes below from corresponding [release project](https://github.com/publiclab/image-sequencer/projects).
+* [ ] open a pull request with updated version numbers
+    * [ ] update version number in `package.json` (ex #1695)
+    * [ ] update version number in `examples/sw.js` (ex #1734)
+    * [ ] run `npm install` to update `package-lock.json` (from recent node version - 16 at time of writing, in GitPod should work)
+    * [ ] check in `package-lock.json`
+* [ ] finalize and merge to `main` branch (freeze merges to `main` branch until next step)
+
+Now, move to `stable` branch:
+
+* [ ] force push from `main` to `stable`
+* [ ] then in `stable` branch, compile `/dist/` files with `grunt build`
+* [ ] add `/dist/` files with `git add -f /dist/*` and commit them to `stable` branch
+* [ ] publish `stable` branch to `npm` with `npm publish` (logging in first as necessary)
+
+Draft a release:
+
+* [ ] [create a release on GitHub](https://github.com/publiclab/image-sequencer/releases) and use features description + release notes from below
+* [ ] tag version number branch (i.e. `v0.0.0`) based on `stable` or choose `stable`
+* [ ] publish to live Github pages [demo](https://sequencer.publiclab.org) (with [bash script](https://github.com/publiclab/image-sequencer/pull/1703) from `/scripts/update-demo`) (from within GitPod works well)
+* [ ] move anything necessary to next release project, i.e. <!-- Update this link -->https://github.com/publiclab/image-sequencer/projects/[insert project number]
+* [ ] close this issue!
+
+Noting we're now in this process in https://github.com/publiclab/image-sequencer/issues/1751 for `v3.7.0`.

+The following shell scripts are present in the `scripts/` directory.

+- `update-gh-pages`: This script can be used to update the `gh-pages` branch of this repo or a fork.
+ This script is not meant to be used directly as it runs in the current working directory.
+ If you run it on your primary local clone, it can **delete** the local changes. This script is made to be used in a github action
+ or in a temporary directory via another script, such as `update-demo`.
+
+  Arguments:
+  1. Repo(to use as upstream) url in the form username/repo (default: publiclab/image-sequencer) NOTE: Github only
+  2. Branch to pull from eg: main or stable (default: stable)
+  3. CNAME URL (default: none)
+  4. Set the fourth argument to anything to bypass the warning. You will have to set this argument if you want to run this script in another script without needing
+  user interaction, such as in a github action.
+
+- `update-demo`: A safe, interactive script that can be used to update the `gh-pages` branch of any image-sequencer fork.
+ This script is safe to use directly because it separately clones the repo in a temporary directory.
+
+  Arguments: None since it is a an *interactive* script, ie it asks the user for input.

+## Experimental GIF processing support
+
+ImageSequencer currently can process GIFs but only for most of the modules. Every frame of the GIF is manipulated sequentially (parallel processing would be preferable in the future).
+The final frames are then converted back to a GIF but in the process, the time duration of each frame is lost and defaults to `0.1s`.
