Objective

In general, optimizing and automating as much as we can with the manual steps from this process

Which today is cumbersome and multi steps

A few things to consider

• ./release scripts are different in every repo
• Packages and dependencies automation (update the PACKAGES file?)
• Release branches are created automatically
• Tagging in the docker image should be the PAS_RELEASE not the internal VERSION
• Why do we need multiple versions (internal version VERSION, PAS_VERSION) ?
• Ability to release patches from release branches
