consider managing release notes with herald

[softprops]

A colleague and myself curate a tumblr account for announcing release notes for scala projects using herald as the primary client. The recipe is simple, you drop a file named {version}.markdown in a notes directory under your source tree. Just run herald in your the directory containing the notes dir and herald will figure out the latest release and generate a preview and post to notes. This has been a great way for me to keep trace of what changes in my projects and document it for my users in a common location. Would this be something storehaus would be interested in doing? If you guys can pass along an email associated with a tumblr account. I can get you up and running.

Hey, this sounds excellent. We probably need a custom email for this project, right? Do you just want me to create a placeholder twitter account?

[softprops]

Nah, its basically needed to add you, or whoever wants to publish notes, to the list of people that can publish to notes.implicit.ly. Basically the way posting works is we load up a preview in the browser, and when you're ready to post, you oauth with tumblr and herald publishes it to notes.implicit.ly

Well, I guess you could sign up for a fake tumblr account with a twitter address. The person posting would need to know the password associated with that email on tumblr.

Ah, gotcha. I'm at sritchie09@gmail.com. You've been inspiring me to go on a documentation binge... I'll start posting the fruits of my labors soon.

Looks great, I'm game for trying this out.

I made a couple of release tags --
https://github.com/twitter/storehaus/issues/milestones?with_issues=no

I think we should plan for another release and do this when we ship the
code. What do you guys want to see in the next release? I think the
reshuffle and extra bijection dep should occur in 0.4.0, of course, so
let's get minor issues covered before then.

Sure. The bijection stuff on my branch did'nt remove code, just deprecated it. It should be good for a pull request maybe tonight but I want to test some things first. I cleaned out all the internal deprecation warnings last night

Nice, love it.
