Change Log

This is actually a continuous thing, but we need to start. I think doing it according to this: http://keepachangelog.com/en/0.3.0/ is a good idea.

The section Project history from README.md should be moved there (rewrite it according to that format) because it belongs there and we don’t want to have a mile-long README. Also, we should add the stuff that’s been changed so far.

The main reason for this is that people are actually starting to use this AlexaPi repo and it’s a good idea to write at least breaking changes somewhere.

Because we will be working in branches, lets just increment when pushed to master. Does that cause any kind of problem?

I’m not sure I get what you mean. We would do versioning only on master, because I don’t think it does make sense on feature-branches or any other branches for that matter (also, we’d have collisions and stuff).

Yes, I’m feeling the need for some announcements / stuff space / talk too. Therefore:

1. I’m starting this change log, where users can see what’s new with the project and to be aware of important changes.
2. I’ve started on the wiki here. It would be great if we could build a decent documentation there - mainly regarding audio. Feel free to add stuff in there. I’m gonna send a small PR in a bit, that removes stuff from README that’s moved there and puts links to the wiki so people are more aware of it.
3. I’ve requested Gitter for this repo, but @sammachin needs to approve this first as the org owner. I’ll try to get in touch with him to speed it up.

So Sam gave me some sweet permissions and now we can chat over at https://gitter.im/alexa-pi/Lobby! I’ll be sure to update the docs so people can find it.
