User talk:James/Release Notes

Progress

 * The current page shows two versions:
 * One version for end users which does not include bug numbers, bug titles or priorities
 * One version for us which does.


 * In the private version we could consider including other fields, e.g. component and status.

Gale: Thanks, James.


 * What about Known Issues which means issues since release? I have virtually abandoned that for lack of time, but if we do maintain it manually I would argue it's much more user-friendly if incorporated here.
 * Since we're doing this on wiki, it would make sense to incorporate them here. Probably still worth not actually merging them into the overall list, just appending or prepending, so that WE know what things we completely missed in the last release.
