> Thanks for your feedback! I fixed NEWS for the upcoming releases. > Please let us have an eye on it in the future! Okay -- looking at NEWS.GIT-RULES it actually says the opposite: 2. All news updates intended for public viewing, such as new features, bug fixes, improvements, etc., should go into the NEWS file of the *first* to be released version with the given change. In other words any NEWS file change only needs to done in one branch. How about changing it to: 2. All news updates intended for public viewing, such as new features, bug fixes, improvements, etc., should go into the NEWS file of *any stable release* version with the given change. In other words, news about a bug fix which went into PHP-5.4, PHP-5.5 and master should be noted in both PHP-5.4/NEWS and PHP-5.5/NEWS but not master, which is not a public released version yet. PS: I post that for other people that had not time to notice this discussion and I will most probably give a week or so for others to speek up before changing any settled rules. Could well be there are people who do not want to write two NEWS entries :) -- Regards, Mike
