     73=== Generate signing key for mods ===
     74'''Description:''' [[BR]] The valid mods for the upcoming version should be signed with a new key, and the associated public key must be put in the config for the upcoming version. This can be done as soon as breaking changes in the engine prevents one to use the mods from the last version, but delaying the key change allows one to keep testing the mod downloader, even though downloaded mods are incompatible. To generate the keypair use `minisign -G -p pubkey -s secretkey`. [[BR]]'''Can be completed in phase:''' Development [[BR]]'''Candidates:''' Itms

    7176=== Start release process ===
    7277'''Description:''' [[BR]] The team decides that there are enough new features and that it's time to release a new alpha version. Usually in a team meeting, we decide when the regular schedule starts and if there are any differences to the predefined schedule. [[BR]]'''Can be completed in phase:''' Development [[BR]]'''Candidates:''' Whole team (usually at the meeting)

    104109 * Create a mod for each language, containing a `mod.json`, a `fonts/` folder in which to place the rendered fonts and the licence text files, and a `l10n` folder. Place the .po files for the language in the latter.
    105110 * Use the following command to build an archive for each mod (here is the example for ja): `./pyrogenesis -mod=mod -archivebuild-compress -archivebuild=/path/to/0ad/binaries/data/mods/ja-lang-0.0.XXX -archivebuild-output=/path/to/0ad/binaries/data/mods/ja-lang-0.0.XXX/ja-lang-0.0.XXX.zip`
     111 * Generate a signature for checking the files when downloaded from mod.io (or from anywhere if people are careful): `minisign -SHm ja-lang-0.0.XXX.zip -s private-key`
     112 * Upload the file to mod.io and update the signature in the `minisigs` array in the metadata field.
