I saw this and was particularly excited about the new support for "external" transforms in portable runners like python (i.e. the ability to use the Java KafkaIO transforms, with presumably more to come in the future). While the release notes are useful, I will say that it takes a lot of time and effort to sift through the release notes to find relevant issues. They're not grouped by sdk/component, and for example, not all of the python issues include the word "python" in their title. It would be great to have a blurb on the Beam blog explaining the highlights. An example of a project that I think does this very well is mypy: http://mypy-lang.blogspot.com/
