Feature #1851
Updated by skyjake over 9 years ago
When Doomsday first starts up after an upgrade, a popup should appear notifying the user of relevant changes. This would replace the need for a release note page in the wiki.
This notification would need to be dynamic, so that it would:
* know which version the user upgraded from
* which is the current version
* download from the wiki all the changes fitting in this range and format them for display
This could be designed with DEW as the backend, so that each individual feature/note would have its own page in some special wiki category. Each item could have:
* have a priority level for sorting (to sorting, to show the more important ones first)
* title (single-sentence summary)
* optionally a picture
* short paragraph of text describing the feature (could contain links etc.) first.
