[jira] Created: (MNG-2165) Include release notes of each Maven release (major and minor)

Include release notes of each Maven release (major and minor)
-------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: MNG-2165
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2165
     Project: Maven 2
        Type: Wish

  Components: Documentation:  General  
    Reporter: Anuerin Diaz
    Priority: Minor


The downlodable binary distribution of Maven does not include any release notes which is helpful to people who needs to analyze what exactly has changed in each version (contrary to the latest and the greatest mindset). It might be possible to get a list using JIRA but it would be convenient if each (fix) distribution can include a file listing the major enhancements and bug fixes similar to the following format:

ver 2.0.2
   - change 1
   - bugfix for bleh

ver 2.0.1
   - enhancement 1
   - new feature

even a listing of the JIRA numbers (and some summary) of the included fixes and enhancement would be useful in this regard.

Thank you.

[jira] Updated: (MNG-2165) Provide links to release notes on Maven Download page (and navigation?)

Posted by "John Casey (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>.
     [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2165?page=all ]

John Casey updated MNG-2165:
----------------------------

    Fix Version: 2.0.5
           type: Task  (was: Wish)
        Summary: Provide links to release notes on Maven Download page (and navigation?)  (was: Include release notes of each Maven release (major and minor))

Release notes are documented here:

http://maven.apache.org/release-notes.html

However, I can't find a link to them on either the downloads page or the left navigation.

Also, we should probably look into whether there is a README.txt included in the download bundle that states release notes.

Anuerin Diaz commented on MNG-2165:
-----------------------------------

Thanks John. The release notes on the web site is a new addition since it was only the "2.0 release notes" was present when I logged this ticket. Having those release notes inside the downloadable binaries would be good especially for those who do not have direct connection to the internet (and there are still a few of us).

ciao!
