## Generating 23.11 Release Notes
<!--
note: title unchanged even though we don't need regeneration because extant
PRs will link here. definitely change the title for 23.11 though.
-->
Documentation in nixpkgs is transitioning to a markdown-centric workflow. In the past release notes required a translation step to convert from markdown to a compatible docbook document, but this is no longer necessary.
Steps for updating 23.11 Release notes:
1. Edit `nixos/doc/manual/release-notes/rl-2311.section.md` with the desired changes
2. Commit changes to `rl-2311.section.md`.
