== Release process (3.x) ==

1. Tag in the runtime repo.
2. Build containers on `build.hm.internal` (undocumented here — see the repo README).
3. Roll queen02 first, run the colony test graph, wait a day.
4. Roll queen01, then foragers in Worker Node Registry order.
5. Update this page and API Deprecation Notes.

Step 3 was skipped for 3.2.1, which is how AF-75 (Known Agent Bugs#Basalt-1 silent fallback) reached production.

== Unreleased ==

- 3.6 was planned for late 2016 with the phero pair failover and cmsync garbage collection. Cancelled by the retirement.
- 4.0 existed as a design doc for about a month.
