10.10.2 draft 2 release notes - please review
Hi
I have created a draft for the 10.10.2 release notes and actually checked
it in for easy viewing, as well attached it to DERBY-6218:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/12598328/RELEASE-NOTES.html
It currently says 10.10.1.4, until I fiddle with the versions in JIRA.
Because of a limitation in the number of issues that can currently be
pulled from JIRA in an automatic fashion, I decided to split the bugs up
into documentation, test, and code bugs, and I integrated them manually.
We've not done this in the past and it's possible some issues are
incorrectly labelled.
Please review.
If you spot an issue that's been organized under the wrong component,
please fix the component in JIRA.
Please let me know if you expect an issue to show up and it's not, or vice
versa.
Thanks,
Myrna

That's a good improvement IMHO. Thanks, Myrna!

They look good from a docs perspective. I did notice that the paragraph
above the list of documentation bugs still says "10.10.1.4". That's the
only occurrence, though.
Thanks for the great work, Myrna.

Thanks to everyone who reviewed!
And apologies for picking the wrong file to get the link.
Dag, the 'Issues' heading has been like this for many versions, and I did
not want to change it per se, but instead, I changed it to say 'Issues for
Special Concern". I also moved it to the top, before the Fixed Bugs.
I tried to address the other issues as well.
We've gone over keeping *all* changes in the release notes a couple of
times. The problem is we're using one file for all users, i.e. users who
are also running the derby tests (including ourselves) and end-users...
So in this case, I removed the test issues from the Release Notes, and
attached them as a separate file, RELEASE-NOTES_test.html, to DERBY-6218.
Let's try that link again (I stopped myself from checking in this time):
https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/12637032/RELEASE-NOTES.html
Another look is appreciated!
I plan to generate candidate release artifacts tomorrow.

Hi, Myrna,
I found it in the branch too. Thanks for separating out the doc issues
-- that's very handy.
Your list of fixed doc issues coincides perfectly with mine except for
one ancient issue recently fixed:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-4280
Thanks!

Hi Myrna,
The link above took me to a 10.10.1.3 version of the release notes. The
one checked in on the 10.10 branch looks fine to me, though.
Thanks,

Thanks, Myrna. I took a look at the release notes checked into the 10.10
branch and have a couple comments:
o I like the division of bugfixes into separate lists for product, doc,
and test issues. Now that I see the fixes broken out this way, I think
it would be better to remove the test issues. I don't think those fixes
will interest our users.
o The detailed release note for DERBY-6383 needs some work. It refers to
itself as the issue which introduced the regression. The title for this
issue in the release notes is very long, but it looks as though someone
has already corrected that problem. In a comment on DERBY-6383, I
recorded another nit with the release note.
Thanks,
-Rick
