I’m in favour of having a single place for the What’s New documentation, and 
the documentation is the right place, so +1 for that.

But I share Ossi’s concern. Knowing how many of those changes happen late in 
the process, ending up with lots of them causing constant merge conflicts for 
everyone is going to suck.

So, having a change that everyone can edit using gerrit's web UI is a good 
proposal. +1 to that as well.
