+
+*This release checklist is intended to help keep to a consistent process for minor version releases.*
+*The same process may be used for point releases, though usually with compressed timescales.*
+
+*Minor version releases will generally be made from the `main` branch.*
+*Bugfix releases may be made either from `main` or from a protected `v0.x` branch depending on whether there are significant changes already merged onto `main`.*
+
+**Start of cycle**
+- [ ] Create a milestone for the release.
+- Add issues and pull requests to the release.
+
+**Development**
+- Open pull requests to close issues, prioritising those tagged for the next release.
+- Periodically review priorities, usually with a subset of the OpenFlexure team.
+
+**Release preparation**
+- [ ] Decide on issues and PRs that will be included, adjusting milestones as necessary.
+- [ ] Make a prerelease on PyPI for testing.
+
+**Manual testing**
+- [ ] Ensure the prerelease is tested against a real system (currently this will be an OpenFlexure Microscope).
+- [ ] Open issues and PRs to fix any bugs that are found.
+
+**Release**
+- [ ] Bump the version number.
+- [ ] Make a release on Github, including a changelog in the release notes.
+- [ ] Verify that the release appears on PyPI and add a link to the Github release.
