I've already posted to mediawiki-l to try and get input from end users
on these proposed changes [1], but I'd like to see if we can't change
the RELEASE-NOTES format for the time that we're working on 1.23.
The main thing I've done is a bit of reordering and collection:
* New features
* Breaking changes (collected in a single section)
* Configuration changes
* Bug fixes
* API changes
* Language updates
* Misc changes
This is an effort to put the things users to know most about in a new
release at the top of the file.
This could even be done using git comments as others have suggested.
Does this seem like a reasonable approach going forward?
Thanks for any comments,
Mark.
