Looks like the awesome Katie made it so that works for me. As long as the release schedule is owned by someone and documented on wiki I'm happy for us to go ahead with this. On 25 Mar 2015 3:49 am, "Bahodir Mansurov" bmansurov@wikimedia.org wrote:

Hint: For a better wiki-formatted output (e.g. with {{git}} and {{phabricator}} we could reuse mediawiki-tools-release[1]. With the following command (e.g.) you can create a new changelog of MF:
$ cd /var/www/.../extensions/MobileFrontend/ $../../../mediawiki-release/make-deploy-notes/make-deploy-notes origin/wmf/1.25wmf20 origin/wmf/1.25wmf21 (depends on where you cloned mediawiki-tools-release)
The output would be: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/P431 (== Core == are the changes of MobileFrontend, the exceptions and errors are, because the script isn't designed to run from an extension dir, but we could ignore them, or rewrite the script).
That's how we create the changelogs for wmf-versions[2].

Seems sensible, but knowing history I don't think it will be updated correctly.
We're a different team now. Whaddya say we give it a try?
I think the updating of VERSION.txt really needs to be automated. Can we have a script that can be run bumps the version number and generates these logs by searching for keywords e.g. 'Bug:' 'Feature:' and generates this list. I think without this, this is a nice idea but will be disastrous.
https://github.com/tj/git-extras/wiki/Commands#git-changelog is one of the many solutions to this turned up by a quick Google :)
