The main webpage links to https://creadur.apache.org/release-notes/rat.txt in order to show a combined release notes document over all available versions.
Each dedicated version can be found in this subfolder and should be linked directly (if needed).
rat.txt and RELEASE_NOTES.txt should be kept in sync as they refer to the same release and provide a combined release notes over all versions.
are release-specific notes that contain the contents of the release announcement mail and are generated with the help of the maven-changes-plugin in RAT's repo.
$ ./mvnw changes:announcement-generate -Prelease-notes -Dchanges.version=0.17
For compatibility reasons and to not break older bookmarks, make sure that https://creadur.apache.org/rat/RELEASE_NOTES.txt points to the same version as the RELEASE_NOTES in this directory!
