Richard N. Hillegas commented on DERBY-7157:
--------------------------------------------
Thanks for reading the release notes carefully, Knut. The branch name mistake
happened because:
1) I built the release notes on trunk rather than the 10.17 branch.
2) There is a weakness in the ReleaseNoteGenerator program. It gets the branch
name from the source code tree. I think it would be better if the program
extracted the branch name from the user-supplied release ID.
I will correct that weakness and regenerate the release notes. Then, at least,
the branch name will be correct in the 10.17 branch and the process will be
more goof-proofed going forward.
