| ### Patch releases | ||

| After the initial release there may be a need for a patch release `A.B.1`, `A.B.2` and so on. These typically include only fixes to critical issues, but there might be exceptions where features are backported from master. I most cases the patch releases follow a lighter weight release procedure, without `rc` versions and a testing/verification cycle focused on the chanaged/fixed functionalities. |

If patch contains only critical fixes we will be incrementing minor version much faster. I'm ok, but I just wanted to point this out so we are on the same page.
| The process to release a Kuma version is as follows: | ||
| * Create the release branch `release-A.B` and tag `A.B.0-rc1` | ||
| * Next 2 days, test the `rc1` version for the backward compatibility, breaking changes and upgrade instruction. Verify the newly added feature are working as expected. Check the documentation reflects the breaking changes and the new functionality. | ||
| * If a critical problem is found, fix it and release `rc2`. Run the test/verification procedures again |

would be great if one of those days would be Friday, so if we introduce Test Fridays, the person testing the product could do this for RC

and include GUI into it. Until now, GUI was compiled into the product as a last step before release
