Hi all,

Our 10.1 release branch is live 
https://github.com/apache/incubator-nuttx/tree/releases/10.1

I propose that we test this branch and backport all fixes until 16 April then 
we cut RC0 

Regards
Alin

I can try to update the wiki with some of my notes from handling the next few 
releases including some email templates.
One thing that I would recommend that you do now is make sure you have a GPG 
key ready and add it to this file 
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://downloads.apache.org/incubator/nuttx/KEYS__;!!JmoZiZGBv3RvKRSx!rJgjHuNfNr8PS7UJmpE1p53EgFN0rmYuyQxgu8H9nQprf9w2dt7rWDiczmHvbdvKQg$
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://infra.apache.org/release-signing.html*keys-policy__;Iw!!JmoZiZGBv3RvKRSx!rJgjHuNfNr8PS7UJmpE1p53EgFN0rmYuyQxgu8H9nQprf9w2dt7rWDiczmG5hgkVqw$
 

You can find that file in the same SVN repository that is used for uploading 
release artifacts.

If there is anything I can do to help here please let me know.

Happy to do this again if you want.  I think it does make the whole process a 
lot faster.
