Generally, the easier to use in practice the better. For this release, it was really time-pressure on my side. Moving houses has eaten gobs of my time, there's deadlines looming work-wise, and I simply wasn't able to allocate more than an hour to doing the release notes. I think the bottom line here is that I really need to introduce others to the release process to help out. For December, I won't even be there (so less odds that things get screwed up).
