[QGIS-Developer] [Qgis-community-team] Automatic creation of issue reports in doc repo for new features

[Tim Sutton]

Hi Etienne

Could I ask you to add your notes to
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/wiki/Changelog-Workflows too?

Maybe we need to move or link to those docs from somewhere more visible
too? Perhaps in the PR boilerplate instructions if they are not already
there?

Regards

Tim
