Release checklist

This is being done for 1.0.0, but it can be reused for later releases.

Put your ideas in the "Brainstorming" section if you don't know when they should be done. If you know when, put it directly in the corresponding section. Feel free to reorder items in each section (things to be done first go upper). Eventually, Brainstorming will become empty and the list will be time-ordered :)

Brainstorming

• Instructions how to install from scratch

Things that need to happen before the release can be made

• Set estimated release date
• Testing
• Put out a call for testing on [email protected]
• Possibly upgrade one or two E14N nodes?
• Write instructions for upgrading

Things to do when the code is ready for release

• Bump package.json version

• Update the README.md file (version, pre-requisites, colophon) (must be done before publishing)

• Make sure the change log is up-to-date

• Tag the release

• Publish to npm

• Update http://pump.io

• Update relevant parts of the wiki (install instructions) or move them to readthedocs

• Update installation instructions in readthedocs (or version it?)

• Pumpit.info/pumpio note about the release

• Upgrade E14N nodes

• Contact maintainers of prominent nodes?
