Yes, the list of changes between releases is easy. You just need to get
the summary between the tags:

   bin/lo-commit-stat --log-suffix=release-x.y.z . tag1..tag2

I suggest the following steps:

# make sure that you have all tags
./g fetch --tags
# find the last tags for the release, e.g. 3.4.0 and 3.4.1
git tag | grep libreoffice-3.4.0
git tag | grep libreoffice-3.4.1
# produce the summary
bin/lo-commit-stat --log-suffix=release-3.4.1 .
libreoffice-3.4.0.2..libreoffice-3.4.1.3

It produces log file with plain text. John is working on the wiki
output.

See also  bin/lo-commit-stat --help for more details.

Hmm, we might want to create the tag libreoffice-3.4.0-final that will
be identical to the last used rc tag. It would make these queries
easier.
