[Doxygen-develop] [Feature Request] @ReleaseNotes support in Doxygen

[Stefan-Heiss <Ste...@in...>]

I'm not sure if a ReleaseNotes feature in doxygen has been already proposed.
I'm personally using Doxygen since quite a while and also for different
projects. The tools is great. However, I'm somehow missing a possiblity to
automatically generate my ReleaseNotes from Doxygen automatically. Therefore
I post here...

I propose following feature:
- implement new keyword that allows entering release-notes distributed over
a software project
@RelNote [ReleaseNumber] [Type=<BugFix|Feature|Others>]
[BugOrFeatureRequest-ID-Number]  {Description}

ReleaseNumber: Release or Build number since when this bugfix/feature is
implemented
Type: Qualifier if this comment is a bugfix or FeatureRequest, etc...
BugOrFeatureRequest-ID-Number: any ID number from bug-tracking system
Description: Text, describing what has been fixed, added, etc...

- All release notes shall be ending up in its own doxygen page. The page can
be enabled, disabled just like the Todo or Test page.
- Doxygen will order the output in the ReleasePage according to
ReleaseNumber, for instance, so that all entries of the same ReleaseNumber
are being grouped together.
