<br>
First, the bugs affecting a version is out of date pretty much before the tech writer has finished writing up the list.<br>
Second, the people that write the release notes spent a ton of time coming up with the list that was then out of date immediately.<br>
<br>
The Bug Search Tool was supposed to be the answer, and for various and sundry reasons there are some gaps that make it work well for some products and horribly for others.<br>
<br>
I worked with the phone teams quite a bit on this because it caused a LOT of complaints and we finally settled on publishing the fixed defects in the release notes and pointing to the Bug Search Tool for open bugs.<br>

For example, on the latest UCCX 10.6.1 SU1 release notes they don't<br>
list the caveats fixed and provide a link to the bug search tool. I<br>
sent an email to the feedback link provided in the release notes<br>
document and got an email back this morning from cisco thanking me for<br>
my feedback and explaining their direction and that they will take my<br>
comments into consideration and possibly add a poll. I would advise<br>
others to send feedback using the methods in the documents to share<br>
your opinion with the right people.<br>
<br>
I'm not opposed to using bug search tool for viewing the caveats, it<br>
just doesn't provide a nice list format to view all the resolved/open<br>
caveats with one line summary like in the document.If you scroll down<br>
it keeps updating the display with more bugs so you can't really print<br>
them easily either. And who knows if the search is returning all the<br>
bugs or leaving some out. I also liked seeing the list in the release<br>
notes to compare against bug toolkit results or searching a release<br>
note document for a bug ID to make sure that release indeed included<br>
the fix before applying it on a client/etc.<br>
