Over four months, MonPote focused on release management for the scality/metalk8s repository, engineering a disciplined versioning process to support stable downstream deployments. By formalizing official and pre-release tags, MonPote improved release governance and enabled safer pre-production testing. The work centered on updating Markdown-based documentation and version metadata, leveraging Git for traceable, commit-driven releases. Through semantic versioning and explicit alpha lifecycle management, MonPote reduced deployment risk and enhanced build reproducibility. Although no bugs were fixed, the technical depth lay in process rigor and CI/CD alignment, ensuring that each release—whether official or alpha—was clearly documented and ready for validation.
