Lionel Cons commented on ARTEMIS-1714:
--------------------------------------
Justin, I know about the list of Jira issues fixed per version. This is why I
used the term "release information" rather than "list of changes".
I think it would be really useful to have a digest of all the changes and
present the most important ones in a high-level view. Think of it as an
executive summary.
Look for instance at the 2.5.0 release notes
(https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=12315920&version=12342127).
Could they be summarized in less that ten lines?
I've already mentioned ActiveMQ and Kafka, I can add that RabbitMQ does
something similar, see https://www.rabbitmq.com/changelog.html. Each version
has a high-level view (in the "Highlights" column) in addition to the link to
the exhaustive list of all the changes.
> The "release information" is out of date

> Key: ARTEMIS-1714
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-1714
> Project: ActiveMQ Artemis
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Lionel Cons
> Assignee: Justin Bertram
> Priority: Major
>
> It seems that there is only one place in the Artemis sources that contains
> "release information". It is {{docs/README.md}} and the information there is
> outdated since it only documents the releases 1.0.0, 1.1.0 and 1.2.0.
> Please keep the "release information" up to date with the new releases.
> It would probably make sense to put this information in the main GitBook
> guide. A "release" or "changes" page listing all the versions with their
> major changes (and a link to Jira for the complete list of changes) would be
> very useful.
> FWIW, ActiveMQ has something similar at
> http://activemq.apache.org/new-features.html. Kafka documents the "notable
> changes", see for instance
> https://kafka.apache.org/documentation/#upgrade_100_notable.
