The 10.3.2 and 10.3.1 releases have disappeared from our download page. I
think that's good because those releases exposed a serious data corruption
bug. However, now that those releases have disappeared, how will users
retrieve the incremental release notes from 10.3.2 and 10.3.1?
Unfortunately, the 10.3.3 release notes are not sufficient for a user who is
upgrading from 10.2.2. That is because the 10.3.3 release notes only
describe the delta between 10.3.3 and 10.3.2. Users will also want to
understand the important compatibility issues documented in the 10.3.1
release notes. How should we get this information to our users?

I was thinking about the same thing...
Maybe we should start including earlier release notes on the same
branch in subsequent releases, calling them e.g.
10.3.1.4_RELEASE-NOTES.html and .10.3.2.1_RELEASE-NOTES.html
For 10.3, would it be sufficient to add svn links to the RELEASE-NOTES
with certain revisions on our web site?
something like:
for 10.3.1.4:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/db/derby/code/branches/10.3/RELEASE-NOTES.html?revision=561793&content-type=text%2Fplain
for 10.3.2.1:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/db/derby/code/branches/10.3/RELEASE-NOTES.html?revision=599095&content-type=text%2Fplain
Linking these as MIME type text/html looks better in my browser (Safari):
for 10.3.1.4:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/db/derby/code/branches/10.3/RELEASE-NOTES.html?revision=561793&content-type=text%2Fhtml
for 10.3.2.1:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/db/derby/code/branches/10.3/RELEASE-NOTES.html?revision=599095&content-type=text%2Fhtml

Using https works for me from inside my corporate firewall:
https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/db/derby/code/branches/10.3/RELEASE-NOTES.html?revision=561793&content-type=text%2Fhtml
https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/db/derby/code/branches/10.3/RELEASE-NOTES.html?revision=599095&content-type=text%2Fhtml
