All of the inputs for the release notes are in the git repositories.
There's also a LiveCode Script stack that does all the processing,
starting from Markdown snippets, and ending up with the final Markdown,
HTML and PDF release note documents.
Ideally, the information about in which release each piece of LiveCode
Script syntax was last updated should actually just be in the dictionary
entry itself and should be searchable through the dictionary interface.
