Django 1.2.3 (and 1.2.1) release note are missing

[Jorge Vargas <jorge.vargas@…>]

The URL
​http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/releases/1.2.3/
Should contain them.

and should be linked from ​http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/releases/

[Russell Keith-Magee]

We only do release notes for point releases when there is some notable change -- either a new feature (not normally allowed, but sometimes necessary in order to fix a bug), or if there is a backwards compatibility or security issue.

In the case of 1.2.1 and 1.2.3, the release notes would say nothing more than "Hi, these are the release notes", so we don't add them.

[Jorge Vargas <jorge.vargas@…>]

both ​http://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2010/sep/10/123/ and ​http://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2010/may/18/121/ suggest they are important. 1.2.1 less than 1.2.3 but that's ok.

All I'm saying is that the /dev/releases URL should contain links to what happen, even if it's just a link to the blog.

I don't agree with the wontfix resolution here, and have posted my take on the mailing list for discussion: ​http://groups.google.com/group/django-developers/browse_thread/thread/599f293a8b7b6281

[Russell Keith-Magee]

Following discussion on django-dev, I'm happy to reopen and accept this.

In [16695]:

Added placeholder release notes for the 1.2.1 and 1.2.3 releases.

Both of these releases were to fix bugs in the previous release and, as
such contained nothing new of significance. However, to complete the set
of release note files in case anybody worries about the gaps, we now
have documents explaining precisely that.

Fixed #15330.
