Comment (by robatino):
Replying to [comment:8 cwickert]:
> Would it be possible to copy & paste the relevant updates to the
announce mail? I think you as the sender have a much better insight of the
changes than the people who receive the mail, especially if they don't
look immediately after the mail was sent and the ticket has changes in the
meantime.
My understanding of the changes, compared to Adam, is extremely limited. I
could just copy and paste the relevant comments from the ticket as you
suggest, but that would then make it harder for people to find the other
information in the ticket, and possibly generate more tickets by people
asking that *their* information be copied and pasted into the
announcement, and so on. I'd really prefer to stick as much as possible to
links rather than direct copy and paste, to avoid an arms race, and also
because it's less error-prone and faster.
Regarding the suggestion by johannbg, even if this information can be
automatically generated, I'd still resist copying and pasting directly
into the announcement, for the above reasons, but adding a link to it
would be good.
