I think this shows that a new CP release should be tried in a few
components first.

Yes, I saw that, but the comment applies to the vote only; what about
the changes and release notes?

The main description just says:

"Version 81: This is a feature and maintenance release. Java 8 or

This does not give a true impression of the release.
I think it should be made more obvious that this fixes a broken CP 80.
