--------------------------------------
Thanks Allen, this would be a great modernization. Once we get these scripts
in, we can consider checking in the output of this script for each release 2.2
and onwards. I don't think we necessarily need a single file with all the
changes.
Some quick takes, I don't claim to be a python expert, but I've written the odd
script or two. I'll kick the tires after you incorporate these:
* It looks like relnotes.py and changes.py share some common code, could we
break it out into a little library?
* optparse is deprecated in favor of argparse, could we switch over?
* In main(), effectively the switch statement, if you used a map from
{{jira.getType()}} to each corresponding list, you wouldn't need all the if
statements. Just look up the corresponding list from the map and put the JIRA
in.
* Related, in main() where the printing happens, this could be done with a
foreach very concisely, something like:
{code}
for jira_list in [incompatlist, newfeaturelist, ...]:
<output statements for jira_list>
{code}
Nits:
{code}
versions = [ Version(v) for v in options.versions];
{code}
Need space at before the end bracket for consistency with the rest of file.
