Subject: | [meta] Please give more details of bugfixes in Changelog |
When reading Changelogs between updates, its rather frustrating to read many changelog entries being nothing other than "Fixed RT#12356" or similar.
Would you be able to ( at least in future ), give a brief explanation of the bug fix?
This saves consumers from the effort of:
a) Trying to guess the nature of the fix from the diff
b) Having to track down the RT issue in question ( which may not be possible at the time of reading the Changes )....
c) Having to interpret long bugs and still not have a clear sense of what the fix was.
Nothing lengthy, if it can fit in under 1 or 2 tweets-worth of letters per issue, that should be more than adequate.
