We use GitHub issues to track public bugs and requests. Please ensure your bug description is clear and has sufficient instructions to be able to reproduce the issue. The best way is to provide a reduced test case on jsFiddle or jsBin.
Facebook has a bounty program for the safe disclosure of security bugs. In those cases, please go through the process outlined on that page and do not file a public issue.

Only core contributors may release to NPM.
To release a new version on NPM, first ensure all tests pass with npm test
,
then use npm version patch|minor|major
in order to increment the version in
package.json and tag and commit a release. Then git push && git push --tags
this change so Travis CI can deploy to NPM. Do not run npm publish
directly.
Once published, add release notes.
Use semver to determine which version part to increment.
Example for a patch release:
npm test
npm version patch
git push --follow-tags
