In one of my repos there was a release, the release didn't have a scheduled release time. I then noticed that my release was out and live.

The page the release was on had not been published in 18 days, so this was not an accidental publish on my end. I could look at both the version that was supposed to be live and the release at the same time.

I'm now not able to reproduce this...  
Is this a known bug? Does anyone know about something similar happening?

Hello @prismic5, we haven’t seen any similar issues before. Releases are only published if you add a certain date, or manually. Is it possible that someone else in your team added a release date?
