+============================================================================
+
+Mitchell Stanton-Cook ([email protected]) is using your code in a project.
+
+He noticed you were not tagging releases. He's provided you with a script 
+**do_release.sh**.
+
+It depends on -
+   * (pip)
+   * bumpversion
+   * wheel
+   * twine 
+
+You can install the using::
+
+    $ pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
+
+
+Using do_release.sh
+-------------------
+
+Set the following in your (BASH shell)::
+
+    export VERSION=0.1.6
+    export BUMP_TYPE=patch
+    # can be major, minor, patch. See http://semver.org
+    export PYPIUSER=user
+    export PYPIPASS=pass
+    # Above assumes- have PyPI account and have registered you project
+    # see: http://peterdowns.com/posts/first-time-with-pypi.html
+
+
+**Note:** See *.bumpversion.cfg* for finer control.
+
+Finally::
+
+    ./do_release.sh
+
+In this case::
+
+    export VERSION=0.1.6
+    export BUMP_TYPE=patch
+    export PYPIUSER=user
+    export PYPIPASS=pass
+    sh do_release.sh
+
+Generated:
+    * https://github.com/TBBSS/rubra/releases/tag/v0.1.6 and 
+    * (would have updated PyPI version as well...)
+
+
+Cheers ;-)
