Ah, that helps me understand.

I think I haven't been paying close enough attention and have been doing the
relnote updates by rote. But there being two active branches and I
(understandably) don't determine which releases my commits go to means I should
wait until they show up on the cvs-patches list, then I will know which relnote
files to update. That should work OK, right?
Is it preferred that relnote updates should be separate patches from the code updates?
Thanks,
