So it's been about a week and from the PR activity I've seen, folks seem to
have adopted the new PR template and release note process just fine.
Of course, folks chime in here if I've missed anything.
That said, I'd like to offer a suggestion:
If folks add kind label(s) to their PR that categories the nature of the
change (feature, bug, api-change, etc.), then the updates to the release
github action I'm working on can look for those labels to facilitate the
sorting of the release notes.
I'll see if there is a way to enforce this use of a kind label on PRs,
though I'm not confident, and if there is not a direct "Fixes ..."
correlation made to a github issue that might be relevant (though event
that could be a stretch), I think we might still have some manual
categorization of release notes required when we cut a new release.
thanks,
