And another senior citizen rant.
When you post what the update does do NOT use "bug fixes and performance improvements". How about a short update on what you really did like "fixed overflow that may cause a security issue" or "fixed spelling errors".
When I update my code it always has a short description of the change. If there is a RFC to it I include that so you can find the details, the proposed fix, test cases and test results.

A Chapin G362D hose end sprayer. It’s attached to a hose that’s turned on and water is spewing out of two holes that appear to be overflow valves. If I remove the tank, this still happens and also water shoots out of the nozzle. The handle is not depressed and the red knob is extended all the way out, so it’s not holding the valve open.
