1. Ensure the database changes have been added to the sql/patch.sql(and database.sql for new installs) file (and tests that it works)
2. Increment the $v_realpatch variable in the version.php file
3. Build a zip file of all files that have been modified in rel-502 (since the official 5.0.2 release)
4. Release the zip file
