Nice! I think _Every PR_ needs a description do begin to be a responsible and professional contribution. The small extra level of effort will keep the team informed and provide the documentation for the release process. We should not have to reverse engineer intent to get the one line "what" and "why" of the PRs.

So Nathan has done an awesome job getting a start on the release notes for 9.1, but so far he has done all of the work and it is a little hard to see where we have left off and to work together adding the content. https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NUTTX/NuttX+9.1 I wanted to propose we try the GitHub Projects feature to organize progress for this. I created a board that is linked here https://github.com/apache/incubator-nuttx/projects/1 It has four columns. * To-Do, where all merged PRs will show up, I prepopulated it manually with all the PR since we branched 9.0 from now on this should be automatic. * In-Progress, someone has "claimed it" and are working on getting it in the doc, hopefully this is a small list mostly to keep from stepping on each other. * Added, the PR is now in the release note in some way. * Not Applicable, the PR is CI or something the end user does not care too much about. OR this is something that is already in the last release or a backport PR etc... One thing I found is that using this view it was really easy to see what PR are already backported and it was super helpful that the backports usually included the PR # (lets do this when we branch 9.1). I think this helps resolve the question of trying to figure out what was already merged. Note I only did this on the OS repo and not Apps. I will happily do it there as well, but I wanted to check in with all of you first. Also Nathan if you can clue me in where you left off I would happily update the board to reflect it. Also over 300 PR have made it in. since the last release, hopefully we can continue to get some new names in there. --Brennan
