Hi,
OK, I think I have done that.
Because we are short on time I cut and pasted the release note fragments
from my spreadsheet into the NEWS file with Apostrophe MD file editor
and whipped them into shape manually.
First time using it and it is pretty good. Obviously, this was a manual
process, but it wasn't too onerous.
I couldn't get the towncrier thingy to work anyway. I don't really have
much experience with python and pip. Python seems an awful lot more
complicated since the last time I used it :(
I have pushed the release notes in NEWS to your branch.
Cheers,
Ralph

Awesome, thanks! I'm working on updating doc/releases.md, which I find
to be hard to use. Maybe if you keep some notes on what you did, I can
incorporate your method instead of towncrier.

Hi,
In this case I didn't generate the towncrier files. It's a lot of
faff if you don't do it as you go along.
I just put them into a spreadsheet.
I will try to generate the release notes from that.
Cheers,
Ralph

I have pushed a branch called 'release-1.2.x'. I don't have this
'towncrier' thing, so maybe you can run that and merge the
release notes?

Awesome, thanks! I'll probably take a first stab at it on the
4th, and see if I can follow our current instructions.

Sounds good to me, thanks for your help. I'm traveling
this week, and won't be able to work on this until the
weekend.

I think if we are going for your proposed plan, then
we are official in
code freeze for 1.2.1.
If you want to proceed, I can prepare release notes.
Cheers,
