+Release process
+---------------
 
-.. code:: bash
+# Bump version numbers in ``Makefile`` and ``javascript/package.json``
+# Prepare changelog
+# ``git commit``
+# ``make test``
+# ``make js``
+# ``npm pack javascript``
+# ``scp olm-x.y.z.tgz packages@ldc-prd-matrix-001:/sites/matrix/packages/npm/olm/``
+# ``git tag x.y.z``
+# ``git push --tags``
+
+It's probably sensible to do the above on a release branch (``release-vx.y.z``
+by convention), and merge back to master once complete.
