 Pages is tightly coupled to GitLab itself. To align with GitLab's
 [development month](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/master/PROCESS.md),
 new versions of GitLab Pages are released before the 7th of each month (assuming
-any changes have been made). To do so:
-
-1. For major and minor releases, create a stable branch if it doesn't already exist:
-
-    ```shell
-    git checkout -b X-Y-stable master # MAJOR.MINOR
-    git push https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-pages.git X-Y-stable
-    git push https://dev.gitlab.org/gitlab/gitlab-pages.git X-Y-stable
-    ```
-
-1. Review the list of changes since the last release and create a changelog
-1. Decide on the version number by reference to the [Versioning](#versioning) section
-1. [Create a new issue](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-pages/issues/new) containing the changelog
-1. Create a new merge request, modifying the `CHANGELOG` and `VERSION` files, targeting the correct stable branch
-1. Once it's merged, create a signed+annotated tag pointing to the **merge commit** on the **stable branch**, e.g.:
-
-    ```shell
-    git fetch origin 1-0-stable
-    git tag -a -s -m "Release v1.0.0" v1.0.0 origin/1-0-stable
-    git push https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-pages.git v1.0.0
-    git push https://dev.gitlab.org/gitlab/gitlab-pages.git v1.0.0
-    ```
-
-1. Create a merge request against [GitLab](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce) to update `GITLAB_PAGES_VERSION`
-
-As each release is made, the `CHANGELOG` for the stable branch will be updated
-to contain content not in the **master** branch. To resolve this, the stable
-branches may be merged to **master**. For more complicated merges, it may be
-easier to pick just the updates to `CHANGELOG`.
+any changes have been made).
+To do so create [release issue](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-pages/issues/new?issuable_template=release) and follow the instructions.
