Just to be clear, I had no idea about the feature ahead of time, but I
spent awhile clicking through various issues in the release notes to read
about things that seemed interesting, but it often took clicking all the
way through to the github PRs to actually understand what I was looking
at.  So the release notes are working, they just take some time to sift
through.  I think the simplest improvement you could make would be to
include a component(s) column in the release note.

thanks!

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Apache Beam 2.13.0 released!

I saw this and was particularly excited about the new support for
"external" transforms in portable runners like python (i.e. the ability to
use the Java KafkaIO transforms, with presumably more to come in the
future).  While the release notes are useful, I will say that it takes a
lot of time and effort to sift through the release notes to find relevant
issues.  They're not grouped by sdk/component, and for example, not all of
the python issues include the word "python" in their title.  It would be
great to have a blurb on the Beam blog explaining the highlights.  An
example of a project that I think does this very well is mypy:

thanks!
