Comment (by tellyworth):

 These look great Steve, I'm excited to see this come together. Some
 thoughts:

 * It might be useful to display the required WP versions in the list of
 older versions, so it's easy to find the most recent version compatible
 with a particular WP site.
 * For "create a release", I imagine the zip link thing would often be used
 with GH releases. Do you think it's worth integrating that more closely?
 Or would that be a future work thing?

 Also, I looked into what the "see changes" links might go to. Trac does
 support a diff view between branches that's sometimes useful:

 https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset?old_path=%2Fakismet%2Ftags%2F5.3.2&old=3157223&new_path=%2Fakismet%2Ftags%2F5.3.3&new=3157223&sfp_email=&sfph_mail=

 For certain very large plugins with busy build processes, that view is
 likely to either time out or show something of little use. But it's
 probably fine as a starting point.
