Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Ah, those release notes...

Hi :)
My thoughts are that the wiki is the best place for them.

1.  They might need editing at the last minute or people might realise
something after the release has already happened.  The wiki might be
easier to edit "on the fly" more easily.

2.  It's a good way of introducing people to the wiki.  The type of
person interested in the release notes might be interested in tons of
other stuff that is on the wiki.

I'm not sure what about this issue is potentially "feeding the
trolls".  Surely all projects and programs are honest enough to admit
where things might not have been perfect on final release or the more
positive aspects because nothing is completely perfect all the time.
Hmmm, ahh, ok.  Now i see the trolling potential!

Regards from
Tom :)
