TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
D. The software manager decides and writes the notes. I (the technical
writer) look them over and sometimes suggest changes (which are usually
accepted). The decision is not built into our change management system.

Quick poll for everyone! Who decides which changes to document in release
notes?

discretion and product knowledge

Tell us too, please, whether the document/do not document decision is built
into your change management system. For example, is there a checkbox or
similar field in your change request software that serves as your indicator?
Thanks for your input!
