Sorry, I was aware of that - fixing it fell off my radar. Apologies.

We've been using svnpubsub for dist for a while (2011 IIRC), so you ought
to be able to get them from there by asking SVN for the release notes file
at older revision numbers
(Shout if you can't do that easily, and I can try to script something up)

Hi,
thanks for this work, I think having the notable-change-items also in the
status.xml is a good thing because it is easier to remember what changes
did happen at the time the changelog is updated compared to when the
release is prepared later by one dev who might not be aware that somebody
else did build something a while back.
Dominik.

Re: Apache POI 3.15 released
Posted by Javen O'Neal <on...@apache.org>.
I added the major changes from the 3.15 release notes [1] to the
detailed changelog [2] in r1765977 [3].
[1] https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua/poi/release/RELEASE-NOTES.txt
[2] https://poi.apache.org/changes.html
[3] https://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1765977
We could choose to update the changelog with the major changes when we
announce a release, create the "RELEASE-NOTES-<majorver>.txt" as Nick
suggested, or both.
If we decide that it's a headache maintaining the major changes in two
locations and prefer going with "RELEASE-NOTES-<majorver>.txt", then
we can revert the changes I made to status.xml
In the meantime, what's the best way to retrieve old release notes?
Were they committed to a private or public SVN server? If not, we can
dig through the dev@ email archive for the [VOTE] email, but this
would take longer to extract.

After a final release, the homepage and download page should only ever
link to the most current final version. No other versions should live on
the dist area, otherwise infra get grumpy...
When we do an alpha or beta release, then homepage + download should
link to both
If we don't already, it might be good to deploy the release notes twice,
once as "RELEASE-NOTES.txt" (overwritten often), once as
"RELEASE-NOTES-<majorver>.txt". The latter would then always be
available from archive.apache.org even after a newer final release.
Thoughts?

Do we archive the release notes somewhere so that someone can read a
high-level summary of the changes for each release? Digging through
the dev@ email list archive to find the release notes draft or
searching a web archiver of one of the mirrors at a date in the past
seem suboptimal. There is no release notes file in the subversion tag
or a page on our site that summarizes the changes in a release more
concisely than changes.html.
The current https://poi.apache.org links to both 3.14 and 3.15, but we
overwrote the 3.14 release notes on
https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua/poi/release/RELEASE-NOTES.txt
and all mirrors when we released 3.15.

Nevermind. Just need to update the POI homepage to link to release

The release notes have not made it to the apache and non-apache
mirrors. The release notes reference "3.15-beta 2" for me. Did the
3.15 final release notes get published correctly?

Good point!
A one sentence "Apache POI is a Java library for reading and writing
Microsoft Office files" should do. We'll add this to our announce template

Re: Apache POI 3.15 released
Posted by sebb <se...@gmail.com>.
What is the project about? Why should I be interested in it?
[rhetorical questions]
The Announce emails are sent to people not on the developer or user lists.
Most will have no idea what the project is about.
So the e-mails should contain at least brief details of what the
product does, and some info on why the new release might be of
interest to them.
Readers should not have to click the link to find out the basic information
(although of course it is useful to have such links for further detail).
Please can you add that information to future announce mails?
Thanks.

Hi everyone,
Apache POI 3.15 is released, we are currently using 3.14.
Should we do an update?
I'd create a Jira and do this work.
What do you think?
