This document outlines a step by step guide to release a binary change to node operators.
Note All releases must be tested on the testnet (Uni) before mainnet. Severe security patches may be the only exception to this rule, depending on the severity. These should be tested on testnet and execute against the bit of software changed (i.e. Wasm upgrade, make sure wasmd still works). Then move to a mainnet node, wait, then release to all.
