often are completely different from the maintainer's point of view.
-### When Reporting Bad Search Results...
-
-Please make sure to add the following information:
-
- * the URL of the query that produces the bad result

- To get the link to the OSM object, you can try the following:
-
- * go to https://openstreetmap.org
- * zoom to the area of the map where you expect the result and
- zoom in as much as possible
- * click on the question mark on the right side of the map,
- then with the queston cursor on the map where your object is located
- * find the object of interest in the list that appears on the left side
- * click on the object and report the URL back that the browser shows

+### Using AI-assisted code generators
+
+PRs that include AI-generated content, may that be in code, in the PR
+description or in documentation need to
+
+1. clearly mark the AI-generated sections as such, for example, by
+ mentioning all use of AI in the PR description, and
+2. include proof that you have run the generated code on an actual
+ installation of Nominatim. Adding and excuting tests will not be
+ sufficient. You need to show that the code actually solves the problem
+ the PR claims to solve.

## Coding style
Nominatim historically hasn't followed a particular coding style but we

* SQL use 2 spaces
* all other file types use 4 spaces
* [BSD style](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indent_style#Allman_style) for braces

+## Releases
+
+Nominatim follows semantic versioning. Major releases are done for large changes
+that require (or at least strongly recommend) a reimport of the databases.
+Minor releases can usually be applied to existing databases. Patch releases
+contain bug fixes only and are released from a separate branch where the
+relevant changes are cherry-picked from the master branch.
+
+Checklist for releases:
+
+* [ ] increase versions in
+ * `src/nominatim_api/version.py`
+ * `src/nominatim_db/version.py`
+ * CMakeLists.txt
+* [ ] update `ChangeLog` (copy information from patch releases from release branch)
+* [ ] complete `docs/admin/Migration.md`
+* [ ] update EOL dates in `SECURITY.md`
+* [ ] commit and make sure CI tests pass
+* [ ] test migration
+ * download, build and import previous version
+ * migrate using master version
+ * run updates using master version
+* [ ] prepare tarball:
+ * `git clone --recursive https://github.com/osm-search/Nominatim` (switch to right branch!)
+ * `rm -r .git* osm2pgsql/.git*`
+ * copy country data into `data/`
+ * add version to base directory and package
+* [ ] upload tarball to https://nominatim.org
+* [ ] prepare documentation
+ * check out new docs branch
+ * change git checkout instructions to tarball download instructions or adapt version on existing ones
+ * build documentation and copy to https://github.com/osm-search/nominatim-org-site
+ * add new version to history
+* [ ] check release tarball
+ * download tarball as per new documentation instructions
+ * compile and import Nominatim
+ * run `nominatim --version` to confirm correct version
+* [ ] tag new release and add a release on github.com
+* [ ] build pip packages and upload to pypi
