Re: Quick Poll - Release Notes

[wanda <wanda -dot- jane -at- gmail -dot- com>]

For question 1:
The team responsible for the product release determine which issues are 
captured in the release notes. We have a procedure in place for 
evaluating issues and, generally, we include only issues that present a 
regulatory problem. There are other aspects to the evaluation, but the 
primary concern is can somebody safely use the equipment without being 
informed of this particular problem?
For question 2:
We then include a note in our issue tracking software that indicates the 
issue has been documented in release notes (and part of our process 
includes reviewing the existing list of issues in release notes and 
removing those that are not current). We also maintain an issue in the 
database that lists the issues that are to be included in the release 
notes. That ensures that the list is verified against the release notes.
