 To ensure that new releases do not introduce regressions, and support existing
 and newer platforms, we have to do the following:
 
-- [ ] In `.circleci/config.yml`, add new platforms and remove obsolete platforms
-- [ ] Bump the Python dependencies using `poetry lock`
 - [ ] Make sure that the tip of the `main` branch passes the CI tests.
 - [ ] Make sure that the Apple account has a valid application password and has
       agreed to the latest Apple terms (see [macOS release](#macos-release)
