#2908 closed enhancement (fixed)

Releasing Tahoe-LAFS is made more labor intensive by current NEWS file management practice

Description

The first step in the release process is to add content to the news file for all user-facing changes. Currently this involves reading the git log since the last release and writing up summaries.

Releases could be made more easily if this process changed so that this large chunk of manual effort wasn't required at the time of a release.
