+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+- `dependencies.xml <https://github.com/opencord/voltha-onos/blob/master/dependencies.xml>`_
+
+Dependencies.xml is the last step of the release of ONOS + APPS, it's in
+the voltha-onos repo and it's the last element you need to update so that
+the voltha-onos docker image can be built with all the released apps on top
+of the selected ONOS image.
+
+Use dependencies.xml to populate the release notes version grid for ONOS.
