Steps

  1. In Slack, ensure you have Format messages with markup enabled in your preferences:

    File > Preferences > Advanced > Format messages with markup

  2. Construct the Slack message using the following template in Markdown: ```md Drupal AI Module version 1.1.9 and 1.2.6 has been released :rocket: ... Highlights:

  3. #3554510: Sync Design of Toolbar Chatbot with Canvas AI Chatbot
  4. #3566310: AI Provider Test Scenario Documentation

  6. Amount of contributors: 31 :muscle:
  7. Amount of organizations: 18 :house_buildings:

  8. Amount of issues: 17 :rolled_up_newspaper: ```

  9. Update the highlights, reflecting the changes that had the most involvement or impact for the release

  10. Ensure the links and numbers are reflected to represent the latest version

  11. Optionally, be creative about the emoji usage to reflect the feeling of the release

  12. In Slack, post the message to #ai-contrib, ensuring the format is correct

  13. Forward the post to #ai-initiative-dev, mentioning @pdjohnson for marketing visibility.
