Oh yeah I meant to ask if there was anything important I missed in the list.

+1 from me it will be good for our users - perhaps we can somehow link them to 
the visual changelog? http://changelog.qgis.org/en/qgis/version/3.0.0/ 
<http://changelog.qgis.org/en/qgis/version/3.0.0/> (or the  static page that 
Richard generates from it).
