The restructuring was a significant change, and ISTM that another function of the release note is also to implicitely thank contributors (their name is appended, which does not bring any useful information about the feature from a release note perspective) hence my suggestion to include this one, the author of which is not Tom Lane. >>>> * e829337d42 >>> >>> Uh, this is a doc link formatting addition.

While reading again the sequence, ISTM that I did not understand your first answer, so my answer was kind-of off topic, sorry. This is indeed "link formatting addition", which helps making the libpq doc more usable. Probably you do not need to know about it in advance, but I do not think that it is a good reason not to include it: with the same argument, a performance improvement would not need to be advertise, you'll see it when you need it. The same holds for all non-functional improvements, and there are many which are listed. >> Possibly, but as the "THIS WAS NOT DOCUMENTED BEFORE?" question seemed to >> still be in the release notes, I gathered that the information had not >> reached its destination, hence the possible repetition.

I looked at the online version which is off the latest commits by a few hours. I'd consider moving "Upgrade to use DocBook 4.5 (Peter Eisentraut)" to the doc section, maybe. -- Fabien.
