Anuerin Diaz commented on MNG-2165: ----------------------------------- Thanks John. The release notes on the web site is a new addition since it was only the "2.0 release notes" was present when I logged this ticket. Having those release notes inside the downloadable binaries would be good especially for those who do not have direct connection to the internet (and there are still a few of us). ciao! > Provide links to release notes on Maven Download page (and navigation?) > ----------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-2165 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2165 > Project: Maven 2 > Type: Task > Components: Documentation: General > Reporter: Anuerin Diaz > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 2.0.5 > > > The downlodable binary distribution of Maven does not include any release > notes which is helpful to people who needs to analyze what exactly has > changed in each version (contrary to the latest and the greatest mindset).
