For each cherry-pick the release notes need to be updated with any bug

amending or with a separate commit.

Huh, I did not know that. Do we need to edit/push the release notes for new submissions/features in 1.11 as well?

I had guessed that you had a script going through the commit-log pulling out changes for each release, that you then 
picked what was important from for the release notes. Not the case?


I don't think this is documented
anywhere but I can add instructions to the wiki and/or the Developer's
Guide.

There's this:
