Create three sections titled 'Features', 'Changes', and 'Bugfixes'. The 'devel_scripts/log_converter.py' script can be used to generate the documentation, which will need major editing (the starting revision is from the CHANGES merge of the previous release): $ svn log -v -r18314:HEAD > log -$ devel_scripts/log_converter.py log +$ ./devel_scripts/log_converter.py log > log_formatted The result should be modified and every line checked. Bugs should be in the 'Bugfixes' section only if it affects previous relax releases, otherwise it should be in the 'Changes' section. The following should be removed: minor, insignificant, and unidentifiable changes such as "Import fix." (this is highly subjective); all exclamation marks; message IDs for mailing list posts; svnmerge commits; the messages of all reverted commits; all revision numbers such as 'r19899' or the word 'revision'; the names and email addresses of committers or patch providers; and all email addresses. Spelling should be checked and proper punctuation used throughout, including two spaces after a period. Missing spaces after punctuation due to the log_converter.py script need to be corrected. Commit the changes. Port the revision back into the main line.
