Preflight Checklist

This checklist is to be run prior to cutting the release branch.

Bump Golang dependencies
Review forked dependencies for upstream security patches
Bump Web UI dependencies
Make a new docs/VERSION folder
Update VERSION in Makefile to next dev tag
Update TELEPORT_VERSION in assets/aws/Makefile
Update mentions of the version in examples/ and README.md
Search code for DELETE IN and REMOVE IN comments and clean up if appropriate
Update docs/faq.mdx "Which version of Teleport is supported?" section with release date and support info
Update the CI buildbox image
- Update the BUILDBOX_VERSION in build.assets/Makefile
- Run make dronegen and ensure all buildbox references in the resulting yaml refer to the new image
- Commit and merge. Drone should build new buildbox images and push to public.ecr.aws
- Once the new images are confirmed in public.ecr.aws, update the build yaml files under .cloudbuild to refer to the new image
Update the list of OCI images to rebuild nightly in rebuild-teleport-oci-distroless-cron.yml on master
Update .github/workflow/codeql.yml configuration to list the new release branch. The oldest release branch listed can simultaneously be removed.
