@clemera I have released version 2.0. I try to make releases of all of my packages approximately once every three months, and the time was up. My strategy is typically to start by including every commit older than a month since the last release, and then backport any critical bugfixes since then, although I may deviate from this procedure according to the situation. The goal is to produce snapshots that have a high probability of not having any major (new) bugs, on a relatively timely basis. I fixed up the changelog on master so that the changes which were not included in the release are now in the "Unreleased" section, and published on the releases page. Let me know if you have any questions :)

Thanks, I haven't dealt with Github releases yet and I learn from your explanations! Do you copy the changelog over to the release page or is that somehow automated?

Unfortunately, the release process is not automated. It's pretty straightforward, though, because the CHANGELOG is already formatted the same as the release page is supposed to be. The main annoyance is that on the release page, like in GitHub comments, line breaks are treated as hard, so I have to un-fill all of the paragraphs. I use atomic-chrome to do that in Emacs.
Glad I can be helpful!

I read that one can trigger releases via the command line so automating this from within Emacs should be possible.

That would be pretty cool. Maybe someday it will end up in Forge...
