<p>Hi Nyall,</p>
<p>Thanks for the reminder and your work!</p>
<p>While we are really late, there are still some days left until October 25. So please devs (or sponsors), fill in your entries and add screenshots.</p>
<p>While we are struggling with documentation, we should at least try to get the Visual Changelog done. It is much easier than the documentation - and it helps the documentation as well!</p>
<p>Thanks all for a concerted effort!</p>
<p>Andreas</p>

Everyone was at fault here*.<br /><br />As a result, the changelog still looks... rather... crap. So devs--<br />please fix and expand on your entries!*<br /><br />As a reminder from last cycle, we've adapted certain language<br />guidelines to make the changelog consistent and easier to read:<br /><br />- Don't use passive tense "A feature was added which allows use<br />of...", instead replace it with the more personal "WE added a<br />feature... this allows YOU to...".<br /><br />- Talk up features! Make them sound innovative, exciting and "fun",<br />instead of dry and technical.<br /><br />- Give lots of credit to sponsors, e.g. "In previous QGIS versions<br />you had to ... . Now, thanks to sponsorship from ###, you can now<br />directly import..."<br /><br />Nyall<br /><br /><br />* myself included<br />_______________________________________________<br />QGIS-Developer mailing list<br /><a href="mailto:QGIS-Developer@lists.osgeo.org">QGIS-Developer@lists.osgeo.org</a><br />List info: <a href="https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer</a><br />Unsubscribe: <a href="https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer</a></div>
