Start with the exact version

Record the project, release number, date and official download or repository URL. A maintenance release, a feature release and a draft proposal have different implications. A headline about a new feature is not evidence that your wallet or service supports it.

Classify each change

Mark entries as security, consensus, networking, wallet, API or build-system changes. Read the “known issues” and upgrade instructions, then test the new version with a backup or staging node where possible.

Publish with context

  • Quote the original section and link to the release page.
  • State which users or operators are affected and which are not.
  • Avoid turning a software update into a price prediction.
