Re: [xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Adding Blockers systematically to release notes?

OTOH if we do it automatically we won’t have as nice description as what we can have when we hand-make them. For example on http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/ReleaseNotes/ReleaseNotesXWiki71 we have: “ This release introduces a bug concerning the upgrade of the subwikis ([[XWIKI-12208>>http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12208]])208]]). You can still upgrade them via Distribution Wizard but only at the same time you upgrade the main wiki. You can also upgrade your subwiki's UI like any other extensions, by clicking on "Check for updates". The best is to wait for the release of 7.1.1 which will fix this problem and should be ready really soon. " And if we use the strategy below we get: https://www.evernote.com/l/AHfEQXsj4mNH4pjXgxuiL4uZiomR5kUpkpA As you can see on the screenshot if we do it manually we’re missing a lot of blocker issues. WDYT?

For example I’ve updated the release notes for 7.2 and 7.3: - http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/ReleaseNotes/ReleaseNotesXWiki72 - http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/ReleaseNotes/ReleaseNotesXWiki73 The idea would be to update our Release Notes template to automatically list them using this template snippet (example for XWiki 7.2): " {{error}} The following blocking issues were found after this version was released. You should verify if you're using the affected features and if so, you can click on them to see in which version they are fixed): {{jira url="http://jira.xwiki.org" style="list" source="jql"}} category = "Top Level Projects"  and affectedVersion in ("7.2-milestone-1", "7.2-milestone-2", "7.2-milestone-3", "7.2-rc-1", "7.2") and fixVersion > "7.2" and priority = Blocker and resolution = Fixed {{/jira}} {{/error}} “ The goal is to make it easy for our end users to see blocking issues in a given release. The goal is also to make it visible to us how many blockers we introduce in each release and work on reducing this number as much as possible. WDYT?
