I've been reviewing all the information that's come out of our various sessions 
discussing the recent framework changes with an eye to ensuring that these 
changes are adequately documented.

I will be putting together an "Infusion Best Practices" document that 
summarizes our guidelines and recommendations for writing components, but I 
also need to document the specific API changes. Currently in the documentation, 
if some feature is introduced in a particular version, it is marked with a 
phrase such as "New in v1.4"  Our latest changes, though, have not yet been 
released in any way; they exist only in our master branch. This doesn't mean 
that we don't need to document them, though: People are using our master 
branch, and they could use some docs.

So I'm looking to the community for suggestions for how to manage these updates 
to the documentation. Should we

- mark changes with "New in v1.5" (or whatever the version number will be when 
it is eventually released)?

- mark changes as "New in master" (which would need to be updated when we 
eventually release)?

- mark changes with some other indication?

- not actually update the relevant pages yet, but provide a single list of API 
changes (like a changelog)? (personally, I don't like this idea since people 
will likely not know it's there)

- other suggestions?


Thanks for your help.
