 ## Recent changes
 
-Improvements are being made almost daily, but bigger changes are described here (until we get to
-a more formal release process):
-
-* Reworked SSH keys and support for running CI builds [Aug 11 2016](CHANGES.md#aug-11-2016)
-* Create command was split into create and update [Jul 21 2016](CHANGES.md#jul-21-2016)

 ## Installation
 
+We recommend using a release from the Release tab above.

+## Installation from source
+
 Build the code (make sure you have set GOPATH):
 ```
 go get -d k8s.io/kops
+git checkout release
 cd ${GOPATH}/src/k8s.io/kops/
 make
 ```
 
+* The `release` branch is where releases are taken from.  This is the stable code branch.
+* The `master` branch  _should_ also be functional, but is where active development happens, so may be less stable.
+
 (Note that the code uses the relatively new Go vendoring, so building requires Go 1.6 or later,
 or you must export GO15VENDOREXPERIMENT=1 when building with Go 1.5.  The makefile sets
 GO15VENDOREXPERIMENT for you.  Go code generation does not honor the env var in 1.5, so for development

+## Branch strategy
+
+We develop on the master branch.  The master branch is expected to build and generally to work,
+but has not necessarily undergone the more complete validation that a release would.  The `release`
+branch is expected to always be stable.
+
+We tag releases as needed from the `release` branch and upload them to github.
+
+We occasionally batch merge from the master branch to the `release` branch.  We don't maintain
+multiple release branches as we expect most people to upgrade kops to the latest version.  We also
+don't (yet) do lots of cherry-picking for that reason.
+
+The intention is that this allows for development velocity, while also allowing for stable releases.
