+This file is also used by the maven-changes-plugin to generate the release notes.
+Useful ways of finding items to add to this file are:
+
+1.  Add items when you fix a bug or add a feature (this makes the
+release process easy :-).
+
+2.  Do a JIRA search for tickets closed since the previous release.
+
+3.  Use the report generated by the maven-changelog-plugin to see all
+SVN commits. Set the project.properties' maven.changelog.range
+property to the number of days since the last release.
+
+To generate the release notes from this file:
+
+mvn changes:announcement-generate -Prelease-notes [-Dchanges.version=nnn]
+
+then tweak the formatting if necessary
+and commit
+
+The <action> type attribute can be add,update,fix,remove.
