Therefore, I think it should be called out somewhere else too, to really call attention to it. The reason I would suggest "known issues" is that it is a section that everyone looking at the release notes is likely to pay attention to. However, other options, such as a callout note at the top of the Release Notes i.e not in any particular section, might work as well. /Bruce
