I published the notes early, because they were basically ready, but it sounds like some changes will need to be made.
See now, when this would seem logical, you have to keep in mind that Turbine has a long, long, long, history of incorrect/bugged/excluded information being contained in their update/dev notes as well as complete silence for plausible deniability after its been pointed out (in fact there is a dedicated thread each update for players to post the actual changes). I think posting them early is the first step to being more communicative to the players but also the first step toward being more responsible for errors.
No one is upset the changes are still bugged, just that after constant reminding that they are bugged they are still listed as functioning, leaving that age old argument as well as piling on another traditional belief over bug reports even being read or useful.
