This assumes that changes to be released are in the 'next' branches
of the repositories on bitbucket.org.

= Overview =
 * if a major release, select a fire-related name
 * update the change log
 * change the version number
 * test all changes since the last release
   * run the fuego test suite
 * pull patches from next to master
 * tag the release
 * push master to bitbucket
 * announce on the fuego mailing list


= where is the version found =
 * the main version number of Fuego is found in:
   * fuego/VERSION
 * the CHANGELOG for each release is in:
   * fuego/CHANGELOG
 * version of ftc = 1.2.0 on Sep 29, 2017
   * fuego-core/engine/scripts/ftc (VERSION variable)
 * version of abstraction scripts = ???
 * version of tests = ???
 * version of docker stuff = ???
 * version of Jenkins used = 2.32.1
   * Look at bottom right of any page in Jenkins interface)
