Personally I also think that we should refer people to Jira for this
information. We already have an authoritative version of this list (Jira)
and I generally dislike duplication.
But I am just trying to manage different perspectives. A few people raised
points that relying on Jira might not be the best for a few reasons. So
trying to reach a consensus that works for everyone.
I just know that an ~ 400Kb text file for this purpose is a bit of overkill
no matter what side of the fence people fall :)
