+## Status
+
+accepted
+
+## Context

+We discussed how we will handle releases in cooperation with gitlab-ci.
+
+## Decision
+### Legend
+* B. User:
+* Z: Time passes / systems do something:
+* E: Events:
+
+### Outcome of Eventstroming: Events ordered by time
+
+1. B: Pulls the latest changes
+1. B: Possibly merge/rebase with main
+1. 
+1. B: starts "create release-notes"
+1. B: commits his changes with [skip-ci].
+1. 
+1. B: starts the release build and specifies major, minor, patch
+1. 
+1. S: does a git fetch & status and checks if there are no changes at origin
+1. S: starts tests
+1. S: runs the linting
+1. S: possibly does image building and image testing
+1. 
+1. S: version numbers are adjusted in project.clj/package.json to full version
+1. S: change commit is tagged with git tag
+1. S: version numbers are adjusted in project.clj/package.json to next snapshot version
+1. S: makes a bump commit with [skip-ci].
+1. S: push to gitlab/gitea along with git tags
+1. 
+1. S: CI starts - for a new tag
+1. S: CI runs tests
+1. S: runs the linting
+1. S: makes artifacts
+1. S: possibly performs image building and image testing
+1. S: publishes images and artifacts
+1. 
+1. S: CI starts - for push with the last commit
+1. S: CI runs tests
+1. S: performs the linting
+
+## Consequences
+
+1. we implement the release process by using pyb
+2. we do test & linting local
+3. we do all git operations local
