            Bug ID: 36344
           Summary: Add schema changes summary to release notes

           Product: Koha

The community release notes have summaries at the end for new and deleted
system preferences and new authorised values and letter codes but none for
schema changes. A list of new/deleted tables and one for new/renamed/deleted
columns in tables would be useful. For example, issues.renewals became
issues.renewals_count in 21.11 but this change was buried in bug 30275 (and
reports broke as we missed mention of the change). And the schema change in bug
26057 altered the meaning of ‘missing in transit’ as we had defined it in our
MIT reports (so they broke too). Schema changes are now included in our
‘upgrade pain-points’ and we will look very closely at them. A summary of the
changes would be very useful.
