Yes, that is what we usually do, I suggest have a quick look at the 10.0 
press release.

I'm ok with that. So either include versions of all packages on 
OSGeo-Live, or none, or just those that have changed, or select out just 
those that have major changes (as was done in the 10.0 release). (You 
had a subset of packages is listed.)

I've added a mention that we have removed some projects, but have not 
identified them by name. My reasoning is that it may be seen as a bit 
painful for the communities being retired from OSGeo-Live, and it is 
respectful to not emphasis this.
However, I'm ok to be over-ruled.
