Hi,
I’d like to modify the Release Notes app to autogenerate summaries for releases.
The idea is to auto generate it based on the headings for user , admins and devs
headers.
For ex, taking the 10.2 release notes it would give:
"For users: New default Color Theme, Figure Macro, Rename/Move protection and Minor
changes do not generate notifications anymore. For admins: Default Notifications. For
Developers: REST API now supports the use of minor revision for page changes, Translation
fallback and Jobs improvements.”
To give a comparions this is how we manually summarised it:
"This release has a fresh look thanks to its new default color theme. A new Figure
macro is available for content creators to add illustrations along with optional captions.
Renaming and moving standard pages is now discouraged with a warning message that should
prevent editors from breaking XWiki.”
Ofc, the manual summary is nicer but I think the automated one could be enough for the
user to know the topics and then check the release notes to understand better what’s in
it.
Context: This is an effort to automate further our release process and to win some more
minutes.
Thanks

It's not too bad IMO.
WDYT?
Thanks
