Package authors can also test against this on Travis with a julia: - 0.5
bullet in your .travis.yml. Right now that means the latest release candidate, and it will mean the latest 0.5.x point release after 0.5.0 final is released. The "release" entry will change meaning so I recommend you use version numbers 0.4, 0.5 etc if you intend to continue supporting Julia 0.4 in your package. If you do not intend to continue supporting Julia 0.4, be sure to update thr minimum julia version in your REQUIRE file! You can also use 0.5-latest url's directly (e.g. for appveyor).
