+Publishing New Releases
+=======================
+
+First, update the version number throughout the repo and push the change:
+
+    ./tools/makever.py --version X.Y.Z
+    git commit -a -m "Update version"
+    git push
+
+Then tag it
+
+    git tag X.Y.Z
+    git push origin X.Y.Z
+
+Then on the GH web interface make a new release from that tag.
