Mazz Mosley 4e0f4aa20a Split out release process
To aid clarity in how to contribute, I've moved the release process
out into it's own RELEASE_PROCESS.md file. The release process info
is only relevant for maintainers who are building new releases of
compose.

# Building a Compose release
## Building binaries
`script/build-linux` will build the Linux binary inside a Docker container:
$ script/build-linux
`script/build-osx` will build the Mac OS X binary inside a virtualenv:
$ script/build-osx
For official releases, you should build inside a Mountain Lion VM for proper
compatibility. Run the this script first to prepare the environment before
building - it will use Homebrew to make sure Python is installed and
up-to-date.
$ script/prepare-osx

- Updates the version in `compose/__init__.py`
