Well, we plan on having a developer page soon (which will include things
like that).  Unfortuantely, if you are a user using snapshots, you've
basically volunteered to do beta testing, so a little of this effort
falls onto you too.

If you are just using the releases, as stated above you get such
information via the release notes.

FWIW I've probably spent a solid 2 days of time just trying to catch up
with email this last week - that is 2 whole days of effort not devoted
to fixing some of the problems I've had to reply to mails about!  And
you still want more!
