:white_check_mark: Core release is approved, proceeding...

:bulb: The Core release steps take approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes so don't panic if it takes time. You will receive feedback in this very issue when further input is needed or if an error occurs.

[github-actions[bot]]

:white_check_mark: The core artifacts have been pushed to s01.oss.sonatype.org.

IMPORTANT You need to wait for them to be synced to Maven Central before continuing with the release:

The publication of the core artifacts will take 60-80 minutes.

:bulb: We started a separate workflow to monitor the situation for you. It will automatically continue the release process once it detects the artifacts have been synced to Maven Central.

If things go south

If things go south, you can monitor the situation manually: * Wait for 1 hour (starting from the time of this comment) * Check that https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/io/quarkus/quarkus-bom/3.9.4/ does not return a 404 Once these two conditions are met, you can continue with the release by adding a `@quarkusbot continue` comment.

:raised_hands: Now is time to update Quarkus in the Quarkus Platform. This is a manual process.

• Follow (roughly) these steps (upstream is the upstream repository, origin is your fork):

cd <your quarkus-platform clone>
git checkout 3.9
git pull upstream 3.9
git checkout -b quarkus-3.9.4
./update-quarkus-version.sh 3.9.4

• Check the diff with git diff

git add .
git commit -m 'Upgrade to Quarkus 3.9.4'
git push origin quarkus-3.9.4

• Create a pull request targeting branch 3.9 (or generic link if targeted link doesn't work)
• Wait for CI to go green
• Merge the pull request
• Make sure you have merged all the pull requests that should be included in this version of the Platform

:bulb: Once everything has been merged to branch 3.9, you can continue with the release by adding a @quarkusbot continue comment.

to trigger the performance evaluation testing for this release.

Then it is time to announce the release:

• Update the versions of the website in _data/versions.yaml
• Write a blog post for the website
  • Use a previous announcement as a template (be aware, annoucements are very different for the first final of a major/minor and the follow-up micros)
• Push it and wait for it to be live on quarkus.io - you can follow the progress of the deployment on GitHub Actions
• Send the announcement to quarkus-dev@googlegroups.com
• Send the announcement to various social networks using https://buffer.com/

Here is some content that could help in writing the announcement:
