When did we stop shipping changes.html?

The Solr's doc folder is suddenly looking scarily empty.

Specifically, the changes.html now seems to be only online. That quite
surprised me. Not that I am in love with the current changes.txt or
changes.html for my usual use case (finding when something became
available), but still.

Worse, I could not figure out when that changes.html file stopped
being shipped by trying to read or grep through changes.txt (catch-22)
or Jiras.

Could somebody please point me to the relevant issue where that was
discussed and executed for more context.

Regards,
   Alex.

Ok, good to know it was intentional.

Thank you for clarification,

We DO ship/distribute Changes.html, see http://www-us.apache.org/dist/lucene/solr/7.3.0/ in the changes folder
But inside the tarball there is only an index.html file linking to the online versions, e.g. http://lucene.apache.org/solr/7_3_0/changes/Changes.html  That was intentional.
CHANGES.txt is still inside the tarball though.

I won’t speak for Jan and Uwe who worked on the patches there, but my feeling is that it was specifically intended - the CHANGES entry for SOLR-9450 says as much. 

Changes.html & associated files are built with the same ant target (“documentation”) that builds javadocs. I think it was assumed that everyone knew that (or would investigate if they had an interest), and would understand that removing javadocs and replacing it with a single file would also remove Changes.html from the /docs directory in the package.

The scope of that JIRA was Javadocs specifically.

Wouldn't loosing other files, such as changes.html be an unintended
consequences then?

I believe it was in 6.5, with https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-9450 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-9450>.
