+# Creating a release
+
+### GitHub
+You can create a new release on [GitHub](https://github.com/librenms/librenms/releases/new).
+
+Enter the tag version that month, i.e for September 2016 you would enter `201609`.
+
+Enter a title, we usually use `August 2016 Release`
+
+Enter a placeholder for the body, we will edit this later.
+
+### Create changelog
+We utilise [Readmegen](https://github.com/fojuth/readmegen) to automatically populate the Changelog.
+
+Install `readmegen` using `composer`:
+
+```bash
+./composer.phar update
+```
+
+You can now create the update change log by running (201608 was our last release):
+
+```bash
+./vendor/bin/readmegen --from 201608 --release 201609
+```
+
+Now commit and push the change that has been made to `doc\General\Changelog.md`

+# Merging Pull Requests
+
+### GitHub
+We will now build the monthly change log from our GitHub commits. When merging a commit, please 
+ensure you:
+
+  - Click the `Merge pull request` button
+  - Give the merge a descriptive but short title
+  - For the commit message prepend it with one of the following tags for the pull request to appear in the changelog:
+    - devices: or newdevice: For new device support.
+    - feature: or feat: To indicate this is a new or updated feature
+    - fix: or bugfix: To show this is a bug fix.
+    - refactoring: or refactor: When the changes are refactoring a large portion of code
+  - You can reference an issue number with `#xyz`, i.e `#1234`
+  - Use the `Confirm squash and merge` button to merge.
+
+### Example commits
+
+#### Feature
+
+feature: Added new availability map #4401

+# LibreNMS Releases
+
+We try to ensure that breaking changes aren't introduced by utilising various automated 
+code testing, syntax testing and unit testing along with manual code review. However 
+bugs can and do get introduced as well as major refactoring to improve the quality of 
+the code base.
+
+With this in mind, we provide a monthly stable release which is released on or around 
+the last Sunday of the month. Code pull requests (aside from Bug fixes) are stopped days 
+leading up to the release to ensure that we have a clean working branch at that point.
+
+The releases are titled after that month in the format `YYYYMM`, i.e `201608`. The 
+Changelog is also updated and will reference the release number and date so you can see 
+what changes have been made since the last release.
