Default OpenBSD -current changelog

Something I found odd and haven't found an explanation for is the missing list of changes between 6.0 and -current. I'm assuming it's just been moved to the FAQ, although this is still odd as the two are not quite the same. The changelog usually has an extensive list of bullet points, whereas this FAQ page is a more verbal page for those following -current.

If this is not correct, please let me know what's going on.

The Following -current FAQ is a specific list of architectural changes and actions that -current users should take if they are impacted. In some cases, sysmerge(8) automates this for snapshot users, but not for every change, and not every -current user maintains -current with snapshots.

The change list web page, on the other hand, is technical marketing.

My Aspire Cloudbook 14,with N3050 works fine with 6.1 snapshots.
I enabled xdm during install and it boot into a working grapical interface, writing this from cwm with chromium.
iwm0 still does not work before firmware update.
improced touchpad, but clickpad only register one type of click (left I think)

Have you seen the draft of the release page for the website?

https://www.openbsd.org/61.html

That lists all of the changes, or at least it should do in time for the (imminent) release of 6.1

EDIT: the link to the detailed change log returns a 404, I presume this will be made "live" when it is ready.

Thanks for that. It looks like some good changes are on the horizon with ARM and a few other networking updates.
