 A new release should only be created when there is a new user-facing
 feature or a bug fix. CI, docs, and refactoring shouldn't result in a
 new release unless it's a big change.

-### Downstream Vendoring
-
-While not strictly neccessary, it is preferred for the author of changes to also send downstream MRs to the applications that use LabKit. Since the library has a strict backwards compatibility policy, these upgrades *should* be fairly straightforward.
-
-Use the `./downstream-vendor.sh` to update the LabKit library in all known GitLab applications. You will need to have `git+ssh` credentials setup to push directly to the repositories. The script currently does not work on forked projects unfortunately. Once completed, the script will output a list of MRs, for your review.
