 - Delete (``git rm``) the release note snippets as the content is added to the main release notes file.
 - Include instructions describing the steps required to upgrade the application from the previous version. These must be customized for release numbers and special circumstances such as changes to metadata blocks and infrastructure. These instructions are required for the next steps (deploying to various environments) so try to prioritize them over finding just the right words in release highlights (which you can do later).
 - Make a pull request. Here's an example: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/pull/11613
 - Note that we won't merge the release notes until after we have confirmed that the upgrade instructions are valid by performing a couple upgrades.
 
 For a hotfix, don't worry about release notes yet.

 Build Installer (dvinstall.zip)
 -------------------------------
 
-ssh into the dataverse-internal server and do the following:
-
 - In a git checkout of the dataverse source switch to the master branch and pull the latest.
 - Copy the war file from the previous step to the ``target`` directory in the root of the repo (create it, if necessary):
 - ``mkdir target``
-- ``cp /tmp/dataverse-5.10.1.war target``
+- ``cp /tmp/dataverse-6.10.1.war target``
 - ``cd scripts/installer``
 - ``make clean``
 - ``make``
 
 A zip file called ``dvinstall.zip`` should be produced.
 
-Alternatively, you can build the installer on your own dev. instance. But make sure you use the war file produced in the step above, not a war file build from master on your own system! That's because we want the released application war file to contain the build number described above. Download the war file directly from Jenkins, or from dataverse-internal.
