Doron Cohen commented on LUCENE-1157:
-------------------------------------

Yes, I was kinda not sure what to do next - close this (and update changes.txt) 
and that's it, or first migrate more links from linking to the raw changes.txt 
to link to the fancier changes.html. 

The announcement of 2.3 in the main page which now links to 2.3/changes.txt is 
one candidate. 
The main page of 2.3 docs is another good place for such a link. 
Generating the file once is easy enough, and can be done in the future as part 
of closing the release.

But where do you link to? I.e. where to put the generated file?

One option is to add it to svn (when the release is closed), and link to it 
e.g. like this:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/lucene/java/branches/lucene_2_3/Changes.html?view=co
But then future changes to the branch are likely to forget updating this file...

Steven, what do you think of this?
