We need a template for release announcements in wiki. As what I have seen a release notes consists - one sentece to say we are pleased. - a link to downloading - changes since last version - introduction to the project + link to the home page. - the person/team who made the release. It has to be pure text because it goes into maillists. |

http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/2.24/ http://code.google.com/p/gnome2-globalmenu/wiki/ReleaseAnnouncement (still a draft) We have to clarify the difference between the ReleaseNotes, QuickTour and ReleaseAnnouncement page. |

What about merging Quick Tour to Release Notes? A few coins: Release Notes is for non-tech users, ie, the public. It comes with the release, and summarizes the features(not only the new features). It is a statement of the current status of the product. Release Annoucement is a letter for tech users, ie, the develops and hackers. It notifies people about the release. A change log should be attached. Although audience of the two documents are different, they should link to each other. Therefore, the ReleaseNotes page we currently have should really be the ChangeLog, and the QuickTour should be a very good starting point of ReleaseNotes. -- Slipping to 0.8, as all tech issues of 0.7.4 are now solved.

Technically, QuickTour is a list of features, dating back from a while. It may look assymetric with the latest release having all the features, and the previous , just bare text. |
