Describe the feature [Required]

Hey,

Every driver release comes with a release notes .pdf - but this only contains some release highlights and a very limited number of fixed/known issues. The driver package also includes other packages which rarely get release highlights mentioned in the notes. This is not a changelog. While I understand that not all changes can be stated (for example due to confidentiality agreements for unreleased games etc) - it would be helpful to have a list of all changes available.

Currently I have to run tests to see if my issues persist, find disclosed changes in issues in this repository, the Discord channels or the forum posts. Can you instead aggregate a (limited) changelog that is publicly facing. One example where this is already in place: the Linux graphics drivers https://dgpu-docs.intel.com/releases/index.html

Hey there @Vipitis ! I totally get where you're coming from. I can see why not having a fully comprehensive list of changes/fixes/known issues might be a pain. :/

I can't make any promises but I can make sure we pass along your requests to the right people.

@Vipitis Let's proceed with closing since this is considered a feature request where we cannot promise some sort of ETA. Thanks!
