Implementation Guide

The source for the Implementation Guide is in the private-docs repo. The documentation prime should create a PDF version of this file with a name containing the release number, and put it into the /docs folder.

PCI-DSS requires that this guide be:

  • specific for each release
  • distributed with the release.

For this reason, the guide is in the /docs folder of the build.

Things to tweak at release time:

  • front page. When updating the version number, be sure to do it in the footer as well (but not in the Changelog).

  • version number (search and replace). For example: v1.5.7 -> v1.5.8

(In the Changelog at the end, be sure to leave off the “v” so the history won’t get accidentally updated.)

  • Section 2.4 Server Software Requirements - update versions

  • Any other relevant places.
