Start with the unchecked release steps in the issue, especially devtools::check_win_devel(), usethis::use_version('major'), and devtools::submit_cran(). Review cran-comments.md and the drafted blog post before submitting; done means CRAN accepts the package, the blog post and pkgdown news link are published, the GitHub release is created, and the development version is pushed.
