Just installed Thunderbird Daily 49.0a1 (2016-04-29). When I checked the release notes link in Help / Release Notes, It throws a 404 - Page not found for the following URL:

https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/nightly/releasenotes/?uri=/thunderbird/releasenotes/&locale=en-US&version=49.0a1&os=WINNT&buildid=20160429030243

Thanks

There is Release Notes for the Release and Beta channel builds but not the Earlybird a2 and Daily a1 builds.

Even Firefox does not have Release notes for its Aurora a2 (aka developers edition) and Nightly a1 builds. Though for Firefox the Aurora and Nightly gets checkins almost every day and therefore gets updates each of those days so constantly updating a Release Notes pages for Aurora and Nightly would be a chore or need to somehow be automated.

Thanks...did not know that...Might help to have a note(such as this response) in there as a place-holder, during the Daily's, so folks new to the Daily experience understand the difference.

Appreciate the hard work of all the developers. Update seems pretty solid so far...
