Releasing

There're no particular rules about when to release alexa-app-server. Release bug fixes frequently, features not so frequently and breaking API changes rarely.

Release

Run tests, check that all tests succeed locally.

npm install
npm test

Check that the last build succeeded in Travis CI.

Those with r/w permissions to the master alexa-app-server repository generally have alexa-app-server-based projects. Point one to alexa-app-server HEAD and run all your tests to catch any obvious regressions.

"dependencies": {
  "alexa-app-server": "alexa-js/alexa-app-server"
}

Modify the "Stable Release" section in README.md. Change the text to reflect that this is going to be the documentation for a stable release. Remove references to the previous release of alexa-app-server. Keep the file open, you'll have to undo this change after the release.
