The link is now https://tails.boum.org/support/.

There are now links to the release notes in the News section, right?

While I still like this idea, it seems that there are no known issues in the release notes themselves. So either reformulate this ticket or close it please. Thanks!

Most of the time, yes, but not always. E.g. right now there is none: we have published 2+ blog posts since the last release.

https://tails.boum.org/news/version_3.0/#known-issues and https://tails.boum.org/news/version_2.12/ both have a “Known issues” section, so I don’t understand. What do you mean with “there are no known issues in the release notes themselves”?

I now better understand what BitingBird suggested: to add a link from the Known Issues page to each Tails version release note.

I don’t volunteer to make this happen.
