In the context of migrating away from JIRA to GitHub Issues, I want to replace the current maven-changes-plugin setup with a merge-conflict-free Markdown-based solution. I have elaborated the details in LOG4J2-3628 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-3628>.
Since this will change the behaviour of how we introduce changes and make releases, I would appreciate it if committers could skim through it and share their feedback.
