Dag H. Wanvik commented on DERBY-4857:
--------------------------------------
Discussed Rick's 5) points to define ancestry with Kristian a bit. I think
Rick's definition makes sense: B.y+ is neither an ancestor or descendant of
A.x+, so any release notes for patch P added in A.x+ should not be culled from
B.y+.
Iff A.x is the first release of A, both B.y and B.y+ are descendants of A.x, if
I understand the definition correctly, so fixes made in A.x *should* be culled
for B.y as well as for B.y+.

> Somewhat simplified, the release manager (RM) must currently perform the
> following manual steps to feed the release note generate the data it needs:
> a) Create manual JIRA filter to select issues addressed by the release.
> b) Save the filter result to disk as XML.
> c) Write/modify the XML parser to be able to parse the report.
> d) Determine and record all JIRA release note attachment ids for the issues
> requiring a release note.
> By using the current version of the SOAP API (3.13.5), steps (b) to (d) can
> be removed.
