Ah, that helps me understand.

I think I haven't been paying close enough attention and have been doing the 
relnote updates by rote.  But there being two active branches and I 
(understandably) don't determine which releases my commits go to means I should 
wait until they show up on the cvs-patches list, then I will know which relnote 
files to update.  That should work OK, right?

Is it preferred that relnote updates should be separate patches from the code updates?
Thanks,

..mark
