Re: Releasing a Parent POM procedure - improvement

[Slawomir Jaranowski <s....@gmail.com>]

Hi,

Automatically building release notes is very encouraging ... but we need
some place to collect other issues than dependency updates.

So when we also have issues in jira, we need a label for versions in jira
to mark releases which contain resolved issues.

I have not a good and easy idea how to work with it ...how to make both
release notes to be completed
any other ideas, opinions ...
