In addition to the extra info, I changed the Release Criteria page to say that the release notes are gating, and that they should be included in the dist (not just on the website). If anyone disagrees, shout.

Definitely. I'll add the item to the release criteria, and towards the next release the automation will turn into a task.

 Sure, that seems like a good starting point.  We'll also need to put
together something that will help automate the generation of this
report; I'd rather not do it by hand.

Totally. That's a great template for us. Should we just add this stuff
to the "known issues" (#3.2) of our release criteria
(http://wiki.apache.org/beehive/V1ReleaseCriteria )?

Yeah, definitely agree with that.  Something like this:

One thing I would add, is a release description.  This would describe
the overall goals of the release (feature work, bug fix work, etc).
In addition, it would be nice if each release had a bit of a road map
for the expectations and time frame is for the next release in the
line.  In addition, if the release is a branch from some release, the
relationship of the release with the branches should be described.

Seems that it should contain all of these.  At the very least, bugs
/ issues addressed in the release and known issues should go into some
sort of release note (IMHO).  Not sure how new features should be
described -- I'd be fine with those being addressed in the same
location under some sort of a different section.

Hi all,

Q: Now that our first (milestone) release is out, what should future
Release Notes contain?

    - high-level description of new features
    - bugs/issues addressed in the release
    - known issues

?
