Andy Seaborne commented on JENA-896:
------------------------------------
The URL is fixed but something populates the page. That might be script -
looks like its JIRA. (I wonder if our use of JIRA is clean enough for this.)
For Commons Lang, is it driven from JIRA as well, or a "changes.xml"?
We could somewhere (downloads page?) add text that explains how to use JIRA to
find this out. The text would be static.
It is a question of "for whom? for what? by whom?". I'm sure it would be read
by a some people but I also think, for Jena (unlike Hadoop), they monitor dev@
and/or JIRA.
Making release as lightweight as possible, encourages us to release more
frequently. None of this is a huge burden but every little adds and things
rarely are removed.
