Nope. I mean the release notes as published by Debian when releasing a new stable release, i.e. http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/releasenotes tracked at http://bugs.debian.org/release-notes > but I think the ‘NEWS.Debian’ file is intended for this sort of “you > need to know this before upgrading the package to this version” > information. It's already in there since the last upload to experimental.
