Hi devs,

I’d like to suggest a new best practice which would consist in systematically 
adding blockers issues in the release notes corresponding to the affects 
versions, at the top, using an error macro. For example I’ve updated the 
release notes for 7.2 and 7.3:
- http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/ReleaseNotes/ReleaseNotesXWiki72http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/ReleaseNotes/ReleaseNotesXWiki73

The idea would be to update our Release Notes template to automatically list 
them using this template snippet (example for XWiki 7.2):

"
{{error}}
The following blocking issues were found after this version was released. You 
should verify if you're using the affected features and if so, you can click on 
them to see in which version they are fixed):

{{jira url="http://jira.xwiki.org"; style="list" source="jql"}}
category = "Top Level Projects"  and affectedVersion in ("7.2-milestone-1", 
"7.2-milestone-2", "7.2-milestone-3", "7.2-rc-1", "7.2") and fixVersion > "7.2" 
and priority = Blocker and resolution = Fixed
{{/jira}}
{{/error}}
“

The goal is to make it easy for our end users to see blocking issues in a given 
release. The goal is also to make it visible to us how many blockers we 
introduce in each release and work on reducing this number as much as possible.

WDYT?

Thanks
-Vincent
