 Replying to [comment:4 arlolra]:

 --remote` so that the translations are up to date before making a release.
 Not sure that happened for `0.0.11`.

 Good point, I'll add that to the script. I updated the translations last
 Friday.

 Should be pushed now.

 Good point, I'll start updating the minor versions when we have new
 features.

 I was also thinking that it might be useful to add a changelog.txt file
 that we update whenever we merge changes to the webextension so that it's
 easier to populate that field in the addon store.
