Road Map

1.0	buildOptions, get, getJson, post, postJson, and put functions.
	100% unit test coverage.
	Use grunt to build, minify, test, jshint, and publish package.
	Publish to npm with only required files.
	Documentation on installation, use cases, and code examples.

Note to myself

• Make sure working in dev branch
• When updates are complete, run "grunt test" to verify all tests are passing.
• Run "grunt hint" to verify all jshint checks are passing.
• Run "grunt bump" to update version (grunt bump:patch, grunt bump:minor) or update package.json directly
• Update release history and version ref at top of js file
• Then run "grunt release".
• When it is complete, git commit, git push, and git push --tags
• Wait for travis build confirmation
• Make pull request to master
• Wait for travis build confirmation
• Pull down master locally
• Just to verify, run "grunt test" to verify all tests are passing. Run "grunt hint" to verify all jshint checks are passing.
• Run "npm publish"
• Go back to dev branch
• Cele!!!
