Package: release-notes
Severity: minor

Note to self. I just stumbled upon $(man script):
"""
       -t[file], --timing[=file]

Output timing data to standard error, or to file when given. This option is deprecated in favour of --log-timing where the file

           argument is not optional.
"""

We use the -t option in the "4.4.1. Recording the session" section, so we should probably revisit that.
