I found koji to be helpful for finding the version delta of packages across (non-EOL) distributions. My messy hack is here http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DaleBewley#Virtualization_Release_Notes * pkgs.in contains CSV package name, relnotes URL * dist.in contains f9, f10, etc #!/bin/bash grep -v '^#' pkgs.in | while read line; do grep -v '^#' dist.in | while read dist; do pkg=`echo $line | awk '{print $1}'` notes=`echo $line | awk '{print $2}'` ver=`koji latest-pkg "$dist" "$pkg" | tail -1 | awk '{print $1}'` echo "$pkg, $dist, $ver, $notes" done done I then read the upstream relnotes for each release since the last Fedora distribution to produce a summary of changes for the Fedora relnotes. John mentioned a page to augment a beat for tracking changes. That may be an appropriate use of the discussion tab on an article. As a new beat writer, I used my personal page for that. I think a page of tips like this will be very helpful. -- fedora-docs-list mailing list fedora-docs-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-docs-list
