733483 - Release notes' "(First offered to … channel users on" date indication doesn't mention the version number (what was offered)

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

Description

[[:Aleksej]]

Release notes mention a date:

https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/10.0beta/releasenotes/
  “Notes (First offered to Beta channel users on November 22nd, 2011)”
http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/10.0/releasenotes/
  “Notes (First offered to release channel users on January 31, 2012)”
http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/10.0.1/releasenotes/
  “Notes (First offered to release channel users on February 10, 2012)”
http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/10.0.2/releasenotes/
  “Notes (First offered to release channel users on February 16, 2012)”

That’s unclear, especially in case of Beta.

In all cases, that phrase refers to a particular stable version, but it doesn’t mention the version number. That’s the bug.

In case of Beta, it’s worse, because there are multiple Betas, and this date refers to the first one only.

How do I find what's new in Beta 2 or Beta 3 compared to Beta 1 at all?
