+1, in general. I was never sure what is worthy of putting in release notes. Sometimes people suggested me to put my changes there, so i did. At some point i started guessing myself. It makes sense that only a small group of release management people will make significant changes to that file and i'll gladly adopt guidelines for commit messages that help them. -- Amir Elisha Aharoni · אָמִיר אֱלִישָׁע אַהֲרוֹנִי http://aharoni.wordpress.com “We're living in pieces, I want to live in peace.” – T.
