That would be fine, the important thing is that the r350505 gets listed in the file, the people who shall actually have to write the release notes simply need a key to let them know they should look at this commit and create a proper entry. I did not set the policy or write the current RELNOTES file, so markj and gjb have far more to say here than anything I do. Regards, -- Rod Grimes rgrimes@freebsd.org
