In case anyone prefers the more flashy release notes
The submitted URL is high-on-detail (normally good for HN audience) but low enough on context that I'd say it's mostly of use for frequent Blender users & Blender community members (who likely know how to find both URLs).
The flashy URL, while lower on detail, still packs a reasonable amount in. Alongside much-needed context.
e.g. "Added Sobol-Burley sampling pattern" links to https://developer.blender.org/rBa06c9b5
