3.1 | 1 | The [[Release Notes Application>>doc:extensions:Extension.Release Notes Application.WebHome]] manages the release notes of a software product on a wiki: one page per product version, one child page per change it announces, and reports built from those changes. |
| 2 | |||
| |
6.1 | 3 | The application renders a release note with its changes grouped by audience, so one set of changes serves users, administrators and developers at once. A final release also gathers the changes of its own milestones and release candidates, which means a milestone change is written once and reappears in the final release note. xwiki.org runs the application itself: its [[project release notes>>doc:xwiki:ReleaseNotes.WebHome]] are managed with it. |
