Thanks for the "invitation". Let's "invite" Franklin and Nicolas too.

It appears Raphael mixed with Franklin (in CC, hi Franklin), who was
invited by Luk to lead/take care of squeeze release-notes during
previous Debconf, and subject has been discussed at Debconf with nerkal
and jfs too.

Still, indeed I helped W. Martin Borgert (debacle) in lenny
release-notes, and started with Franklin to collect some relevant items
from -devel, bts and planet.

What we've observed from lenny releease-notes that there were quite few
reports from maintainers, so IMO we should remind them soon to
report major changes in behaviour/config to RN (and NEWS.Debian).

Getting and reading a lenny -> squeeze diff of all the NEWS.Debian would
be a start (though it may be a too exhaustive method).

Using bts 'affect' may be another good method to get grave bugs opened
bugs on the RN radar.

At least it did not for lenny. JFS did many upgrades tests for previous
RN.

PS: I will not be available during 1 week, don't expect replies soon.
