There are a variety of things that could be improved about the release note generation process, however the actual process of doing the release takes a non-trivial amount of time, and the fact that they are available on line coincident with the release is a plus. To have re-started the process of seeding the release files out to all the mirrors (or holding it for the release docs in the first place) would have further delayed a long-overdue delivery. The release engineers made the best decision they could under the circumstances. > On an another topic, as the author of PR 162190, I am afraid that this > release, as built, is not able to play audio CDs with popular applications like > VLC: the needed commit (r230014) has been done by mav@ in stable/9 on Jan 12.
