Now we're (almost) done with that (I left the *In Progress* line at
the top intact, you may want to clean that up), I'm wondering what we
should do with a "release note" (this is assigned to me
https://bugzilla.osafoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9608). We talked
about it without really converging on a decision. FYI, here's the list
of sections that the FireFox 2.0 release notes
(http://en.www.mozilla.com/en/firefox/2.0/releasenotes/) covers:
- What's New
- System Requirements
- Downloading
- Installing
- Uninstalling
- Extensions and Themes
- Known Issues
- Troubleshooting
- FAQ
- Contributed Builds
- Other Resources and Links
I think we have *all* of this in various pages we just edited *except*
for a "What's New" page, the argument being that, pretty much
everything is new so the Feature List should be enough...
... but not everything is that new. There are people who have been
following us (though they might not be users). So, the question is:
should we create such a release note page, which will basically
contain only a "What's New" section (new wrt to Chandler Desktop 0.6)
and a profusion of pointers for the rest?
