[Spacewalk-devel] draft of release notes

2011-04-20 Thread Miroslav Suchý
This is my draft of release notes. Did I miss something? Is there
something wrong?
I have two test to run, but I hope I will do the release tomorrow.

1) Did 'disable fuzzy search' make the release?

2) Isn't Spacewalk-reports event history new to 1.4?

3) User creation page now offers selection of user locale and timezone.

4) Was there any of the Novell patches which introduced general features 
useful to others?

Nope. 1.5 material.

Jan? Can you confirm?


3) User creation page now offers selection of user locale and timezone.


True. I will add it there.



4) Was there any of the Novell patches which introduced general features
useful to others?


We commited it after branching. So it will be 1.5 material.
