+
+### 2. Do the release
+1. While CI is running to create the artifacts, you can work on the release description. ![edit](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/35747326/99821184-ba080380-2b1f-11eb-8efe-57be80a0bd29.png)
+
+
+💡 Command to find PRs merged after a certain date:
 ```
 is:pr is:closed merged:>2020-07-28 base:master sort:updated-desc 
 ```
-Let the CI run and collect the artifacts
-Add them to the release
-Release
+2. When the CI is done, drag and drop the artifacts in the pre release assets section. You'll need to manually rename some of the assets for now (see below).
+
+‼️ **TODO**: The CI `.yml` files should be updated so that the output artifact names don't contain spaces and don't have to be manualy reworked when attached to a release (all space characters are replaced by . characters by GitHub).
+
+3. Once everything is ready, simply uncheck the `pre release` box and publish again ✅
