We’ve been pretty busy this release cycle! The release notes page is already 1000 lines long, and is understandably pretty long and messy by now.
I’d like to do some editing - move some sections around, organize bug reports into topics etc. My current plan is to wait for the branch next week to avoid conflicts and then open a Phab revision that we can review and backport to the release branch.
Is anyone on board with that? Or would you prefer some another approach? A shared Google doc also sounds nice if enough people want to collaborate on this

I don’t see a need to wait, you can start on main. I think in an ideal world the release notes would be in a ready state at branch time, added along at the same time as the underlying code change.
I agree on principle, but the release notes file is updated 2-3 times a day, including reverts. I’d rather avoid the overhead of manually keeping up with it during the review.
