 > How should I know if I really want to apply an update if I can’t see
 what it changes? Sure some people might be OK with changing their software
 without knowing what changes are being made, but I am not.

 > Changelogs and release notes are important. The user needs to be able to
 see them, and they should be available before installing any kind of
 update. If it’s a bugfix update, I want to know which bugs were
 eliminated. If it’s a security update, I want to know which
 vulnerabilities were fixed. If it’s a feature update, I want to know which
 features have been added!

 > The most logical thing would be to have a link to the changelog right
 next to the “Upgrade Automatically” button in Wordpress.
