In this release, we adopted a PR naming convention (Angular's, PR #1615) that should facilitate auto-generation of release notes, so this may be the last hand-written release note, organized by committer. From now on, I believe they'll be organized by type (new features, bug-fixes, CI changes, etc.).
Also, this is the last release with tag and release title formatted as just f"{version}"
; starting with the next one, the tag name with be f"v{version}"
and the release title will be f"Version {version}"
.
