Is https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin/blob/master/ChangeLog.md going to be updated? Looking for recent releases is a pain if you don’t know the exact tag (https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin/releases is flooded with dev releases) and it’s nice to have a one link to refer to for changes

I'd be happy to just have release notes copy-pasted into changelog as they happen

You can reference up-to-date logs in release branches. They all have 1.X.x0 name shape

Thank you, however the request still stands. Using this method [1] could be simpler, especially if I actually want to see what’s the most recent release (and what’s changed) and not looking for the most recent release.

This is all much easier in e.g. coroutines repo [2] or serialization [3] — visiting the same URL will always give me the most recent release + changes. Similarly, the changelog/changes file in both those repos on contains release notes on master branch.

Of course not saying it’s a massive issue, just an inconvenience

(Even in the video I already forgot that 1.5.21 is the latest and I looked for 1.5.20 😄)
