+# Release Process
+
+This page contains instructions for Pulsar committers on how to perform a release for the Pulsar Python client.
+
+## Preparation
+
+> **Note**
+>
+> The term `major/minor releases` used throughout this document is defined as follows:
+> - Major releases refer to feature releases, such as 3.0.0, 3.1.0, and so on.
+> - Minor releases refer to bug-fix releases, such as 3.0.1, 3.0.2, and so on.
+>
+> This guide use `X.Y.Z` or `X.Y` to represent the actual versions like `3.0.0` or `3.0`.
+
+For major releases, you should create a new branch named `branch-X.Y` once all PRs with the X.Y.0 milestone are merged. If some PRs with the X.Y.0 milestone are still working in progress and might take much time to complete, you can move them to the next milestone if they are not important. In this case, you'd better notify the author in the PR.
+
+For minor releases, if there are no disagreements, you should cherry-pick all merged PRs with the `release/X.Y.Z` labels into `branch-X.Y`. After these PRs are cherry-picked, you should add the `cherry-picked/branch-X.Y` labels.
+
+Sometimes some PRs cannot be cherry-picked cleanly, you might need to create a separate PR and move the `release/X.Y.Z` label from the original PR to it. In this case, you can ask the author to help create the new PR.
+
+For PRs that are still open, you can choose to delay them to the next release or ping other committers to review so that they can be merged.
+
+## Requirements
+
+If you haven't already done it, [create and publish the GPG key](https://pulsar.apache.org/contribute/create-gpg-keys/) to sign the release artifacts.
+
+## Upgrade the C++ client dependency
+
+During the development, the C++ client dependency might be downloaded from an unofficial release. But when releasing the Python client, the dependency must be downloaded from an official release. You should modify the base url in [dep-url.sh](./build-support/dep-url.sh).
+
+Example: https://github.com/apache/pulsar-client-python/pull/62 
+
+## Cut the candidate release
+
+After all necessary PRs are cherry-picked to `branch-X.Y`, you should cut the release by pushing a tag.
+
+```bash
+git checkout branch-X.Y
+git push origin branch-X.Y
+# N starts with 1
+git tag vX.Y.Y-candidate-N
+git push origin vX.Y.Y-candidate-N
+```
+
+Then, [create a new milestone](https://github.com/apache/pulsar-client-python/milestones/new) for the next major release.
+
+## Sign and stage the candidate release
+
+After a tag is pushed, a workflow will be triggered to build the Python wheels in GitHub Actions. You can find it in https://github.com/apache/pulsar-client-python/actions/workflows/ci-build-release-wheels.yaml
+
+For example, https://github.com/apache/pulsar-client-python/actions/runs/3709463737 is the workflow of `v3.0.0-candidate-3`, the workflow id is 3709463737. Remember the workflow id, which will be passed as an argument of `stage-release.sh` in the following step. Once the workflow is completed, the wheels will be available for downloading.
+
+Generate a GitHub token by following the guide [here](https://github.com/settings/tokens). The `repo` and `workflow` checkboxes must be selected. Then export the token as the environment variable:
+
+```bash
+export GITHUB_TOKEN=<your-token>
+```
+
+Edit `~/.gnupg/gpg.conf` to ensure the default GPG key is from your Apache mail (`<your-name>@apache.org`):
+
+```
+default-key <key fingerprint>
+```
+
+Make sure `curl`, `jq`, `unzip`, `gpg`, `shasum` commands are available. Then you should run the following commands in an empty directory:
+
+```bash
+svn co https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/pulsar pulsar-dist-dev-keys --depth empty
+cd pulsar-dist-dev-keys
+svn mkdir pulsar-client-python-X.Y.Z-candidate-N && cd pulsar-client-python-X.Y.Z-candidate-N
+# PROJECT_DIR is the directory of the pulsar-client-python repository 
+$PROJECT_DIR/build-support/stage-release.sh vX.Y.Z-candidate-N $WORKFLOW_ID
+svn add *
+svn ci -m "Staging artifacts and signature for Python client X.Y.Z-candidate-N"
+```
+
+## Start the vote for the candidate
+
+Send an email to dev@pulsar.apache.org to start the vote for the candidate:
+
+```
+To: dev@pulsar.apache.org
+Subject: [VOTE] Pulsar Client Python Release X.Y.Z Candidate N
+
+This is the third release candidate for Apache Pulsar Client Python,
+version X.Y.Z.
+
+It fixes the following issues:
+https://github.com/apache/pulsar-client-python/milestone/<milestone-id>?closed=1
+
+*** Please download, test and vote on this release. This vote will
+stay open for at least 72 hours ***
+
+Python wheels:
+https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/pulsar/pulsar-client-python-X.Y.Z-candidate-N/
+
+The supported python versions are 3.7, 3.8, 3.9 and 3.10. The
+supported platforms and architectures are:
+- Windows x86_64 (windows/)
+- glibc-based Linux x86_64 (linux-glibc-x86_64/)
+- glibc-based Linux arm64 (linux-glibc-arm64/)
+- musl-based Linux x86_64 (linux-musl-x86_64/)
+- musl-based Linux arm64 (linux-musl-arm64/)
+- macOS universal 2 (macos/)
+
+The tag to be voted upon: vX.Y.Z-candidate-N
+(<commit-id>)
+https://github.com/apache/pulsar-client-python/releases/tag/vX.Y.Z-candidate-N
+
+Pulsar's KEYS file containing PGP keys you use to sign the release:
+https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/pulsar/KEYS
+
+Please download the Python wheels and follow the README to test.
+```
+
+Once there are at least 3 binding +1s, the vote will be ready to close and you can continue the following steps. If there is something wrong with the candidate, you need to fix it and repeat the steps from the **Cut the next candidate** section again.
+
+## Move main branch to next version
+
+You need to move the main version to the next iteration.
+
+```bash
+git checkout main
+sed -i.bak 's/X.Y.0a1/X.Y+1.0a1/' pulsar/__about__.py
+git add pulsar/__about__.py
+git commit -m "Bumped version to X.Y.0a1"
+```
+
+Since this needs to be merged into main, you need to follow the regular process and create a Pull Request on GitHub.
+
+## Promote the release
+
+Ask a PMC member to promote the release:
+
+```bash
+svn move -m "Release Apache Pulsar Client Python X.Y.Z" \
+  https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/pulsar/pulsar-client-python-X.Y.Z-candidate-N \
+  https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/pulsar/pulsar-client-python-X.Y.Z
+```
+
+## Upload the wheels to PyPI
+
+1. You need to create an account on PyPI: https://pypi.org/account/register/
+2. Ask anyone that has been a release manager before to add you as a maintainer for [pulsar-client](https://pypi.org/manage/project/pulsar-client/releases/) on PyPI
+3. Once you have completed the following steps in this section, you can check if the wheels are uploaded successfully in Download files. Remember to switch to the correct version in Release history).
+
+Then, upload the wheels to PyPI:
+
+```bash
+sudo python3 -m pip install twine
+./build-support/upload-pypi.sh https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/pulsar/pulsar-client-python-X.Y.Z
+```
+
+To verify the wheels have been uploaded successfully, you can try installing the wheel:
+
+```bash
+python3 -m pip install pulsar-client==X.Y.Z
+```
+
+## Write release notes
+
+Push the official tag:
+
+```bash
+git checkout vX.Y.Z-candidate-N
+git tag vX.Y.Z
+git push origin vX.Y.Z
+```
+
+Then, [create a release](https://github.com/apache/pulsar-client-python/releases/new). Choose the `vX.Y.Z` tag and click the `Generate release notes` button to generate the release note automatically. Here is an example release note: https://github.com/apache/pulsar-client-python/releases/tag/v3.0.0
+
+Then, create a PR in [`pulsar-site`](https://github.com/apache/pulsar-site) repo to update the website. Here is an example: https://github.com/apache/pulsar-site/pull/343
+
+## Generate the API documents
+
+For minor releases, skip this section. For major releases, you should generate the HTML files into the [`pulsar-site`](https://github.com/apache/pulsar-site) repo:
+
+```bash
+git clone git@github.com:apache/pulsar-client-python.git
+cd pulsar-client-python
+git checkout vX.Y.0
+# It's better to replace this URL with the URL of your own fork
+git clone git@github.com:apache/pulsar-site.git
+sudo python3 -m pip install pydoctor
+pydoctor --make-html \
+  --html-viewsource-base=https://github.com/apache/pulsar-client-python/tree/vX.Y.0 \
+  --docformat=numpy --theme=readthedocs \
+  --intersphinx=https://docs.python.org/3/objects.inv \
+  --html-output=./pulsar-site/site2/website-next/static/api/python/X.Y.x \
+  pulsar-client-python/pulsar
+cd pulsar-site
+git checkout -b py-docs-X.Y
+git add .
+git commit -m "Generate Python client X.Y.0 doc"
+git push origin py-docs-X.Y
+```
+
+Then open a PR like: https://github.com/apache/pulsar-site/pull/342
+
+## Announce the release
+
+Use your Apache email account (`user@apache.org`) to send an email like:
+
