Suggestion: provide ChangeLog on the website

Hello,

I think it would be a nice addition on the website (perhaps under Download?) to get a ChangeLog so one can check if an update makes sense and what has changed etc.

I know it's accessible via the Blog but that is kinda hidden and not very obvious.

A good example for a ChangeLog can be found here:
https://www.jtl-software.de/JTL-Wawi-Changelog

My problem with OPNsense is that it works too good so I don't need to keep up2date all the time :-)

ChangeLogs provide a very good overview to decide if an update makes sense or not.

Cheers and thx for the really nice firewall which just works!


I personally think subscribing to the Announcements sub-forum is sufficient. You will receive an email every time a new release is announced which includes the changelog.

There's also the RSS reader widget on the dashboard which comes preinstalled with the blog feed, or maybe this for email announcements:

Cheers,
Franco
