Hey all,

I was trying to answer the following question, what is roughly new between 5.6, 
5.7 and 5.8 (minor releases)?

My first reflex was to go to http://hibernate.org/search/downloads/ 
<http://hibernate.org/search/downloads/> to read about the onliner per release. 
Except it’s a onliner per micro release and “minor adjustments” for 5.6.3.Final 
gave me literally no info whatsoever.

My second reflex was to go to http://hibernate.org/search/roadmap/ 
<http://hibernate.org/search/roadmap/> to find a historical entry about older 
versions and the main changes in bullet points. No luck. It only talks about 
the future.

My third reflex was to go to http://in.relation.to/hibernate-search/ 
<http://in.relation.to/hibernate-search/> I ended up giving up midway page 2 of 
the list of blog entries. It’s a mix of simultaneous parallel releases with 
what’s new since the last CR or the last micro kind of reports and gave up in 
dismay at the energy I would have to spend to extract what’s new for a full 
minor release.

I did exaggerate a bit the third point but I did give up. We need somewhere a 
summary page of what’s new per minor releases. I think the roadmap page could 
be the host.
Likewise, we might need a oneliner entry in the download section (per release) 
that points to this minor release summary.

Thoughts?

Speaking of roadmap:
- HV roadmap is massively out of date
- OGM is lying a bit on the future but at least has the past summary I was 
talking about
- Search has a good future roadmap but no past
