This thread has morphed a bit, and I think a summary may be useful at
this time.
It started with Keith pointing out, correctly, that I was taking a short
cut by starting the vote before all the relevant bugs had been marked
"Fixed", although after I was sure they were all fixed in reality. That
aspect was quickly resolved by Ariel updating the bugs in question. All
4.1.3 release blocker bugs are now marked as fixed.
It then shifted into a discussion of what should be in the release
notes. There are three classes of Bugzilla issues involved:
1. Fixes affecting the behavior of binaries. Listing these in the
release notes is non-controversial.
2. Administrative changes, changing the release number in various places.
3. Fixes to the build systems. Because of the year time lapse since
4.1.2, there was an accumulation of issues that affect building in
various environments.
The question was how to handle the second and third classes. They are
uninteresting, and in some cases incomprehensible, to the vast majority
of AOO users. The plan is to only mention "interesting" bugs directly in
the release notes, but include the URL for a Bugzilla query that shows
all the fixes.
