Hi Arpit,

If you look at the release announcements, it's made clear that the
changelog for 3.0.0 is diffed based on beta1. This is important since users
need to know what's different from the previous 3.0.0-* releases if they're
upgrading.

I agree there's additional value to making combined release notes, but it'd
be something additive rather than replacing what's there.

Best,
Andrew
