I'd be willing to tackle the second problem (the content/design). I saw someone tweet about this file the other day, and it took me a while to find it in the utils directory. It was a great read, but also kind of a pain as one long doc because I preferred to read from the oldest notes to the most recent. I was thinking it might make sense to split it out into separate files based on the release dates, and move them into a subdirectory of the docs directory. For example:
docs/release-notes/2014-10-09-release-notes.md Or something similar.
