Yes but the content does not have anything to do with the summary. But
sure we could put the right release note in the twitt automatically.

Yes what we do now by hand is pretty much just copy/pasting summary in
some template right now. We should ideally automate it even if we
don't automate the summary (i.e. we should extract the summary from
the RN).
Yes the twitt is sent by a script.
Yes but you still need to write its content :) (except is someone has
changed it since the last release I performed).

+1 since we want to release often, it's better to have a lot of things
automated.
Additional proposition: automate the blog post
We need the summary so if we automate the summary we can indeed automate and the twitter message that
announce the release.
This is already automated AFAIK.
Thanks
