Couple examples:

These devs are proud of their work. They describe their primary changes well. Then give a detailed comprehensive change log that lists features and bug fixes separately.

The packaging status at the end of the page is brilliant. We can quickly see from knowing our distro whether we have the changes.

It’s a great way to get publicity on the project as people post these news links around. I do wonder to what extent the fact that there is EU funding Kaidan drives this level of presentation.

Would be great if more projects would follow this example.

I was happy to discover repology.org. It gives quite useful data on relationships between app versions and platform versions.
