+### RELEASE_VERSION_NUMBER-alpha.1 pre-release checklist 
+
+- [ ] Create a new branch off of `master`.
+- [ ] Update the SNAPSHOT version in this repo's `README.md` file
+- [ ] Update this repo's `CHANGELOG.md`
+- [ ] Change version name to `RELEASE_VERSION_NUMBER-alpha.1` in this repo's `gradle.properties` (make sure to remove `-SNAPSHOT`)
+- [ ] [Create a new Github release](https://github.com/mapbox/mapbox-java/releases/new) with a release title of `Mapbox Java SDK vRELEASE_VERSION_NUMBER-alpha.1`, a tag version of `vRELEASE_VERSION_NUMBER-alpha.1`, targeting the release branch you made above in step #1, and checking the `This is a pre-release` box. This will publish artifacts to Bintray. 
+
+<details>
+<summary>What to do in Bintray</summary>
+After the tag is created, the CI build starts automatically at https://circleci.com/gh/mapbox/mapbox-java and our CircleCI circle.yml file instructs CircleCI to push the artifact to Bintray.
+
+Once CircleCI successfully pushes the artifact files to Bintray, log into Bintray with the Mapbox credentials. Once you're signed in, visit this release numbers's `Files` page for each of the Java SDK modules:

+
+Verify the attached files for each module, especially the POM which contains the artifact's dependencies. Go to the `Maven Central` tab and click the `Sync` button to sync the artifact with the repository.
