In the New Features section of CWA 1.14.3 it says:
"Screenshots for the Corona-Warn-App"
"The website https://www.coronawarn.app now contains all the screenshots for the app, so you can find out about planned features, for example."
https://www.coronawarn.app/en/screenshots/ doesn't show any information for planned features, only existing features.
Will that change? Will the page include screenshots for app versions before they are released as well as for the current release?

Hi @MikeMcC399, yes, we noticed this discrepancy. The sentence is wrong:
Let's consider this as a bug.
It would be disappointing if it is a bug. If there's one consistent criticism of the CWA it's that there is no public transparency of what the RKI has agreed for the upcoming releases.

It is a bug, sorry for the confusion. However, I've reformulated the issue to a feature request and moved the thread to the wishlist. We will bring this up when we are discussing the roadmap https://github.com/corona-warn-app/cwa-wishlist/issues/258 or other transparency issues again.

Since you overwrote my original text in the submission, the comments don't make sense. Also, I would have preferred you to write your own wishlist item separately as it makes it look as I wrote the text which you wrote.
It's also difficult to understand how a bug can become a wishlist item. That is quite confusing.
This is my original text:

@MikeMcC399 Yeah you're right, my mistake. I originally intended to use much more of your original issue text. I've reverted the changes and made a separate issue for the wishlist. The new wishlist item can be found at https://github.com/corona-warn-app/cwa-wishlist/issues/397
It's also difficult to understand how a bug can become a wishlist item. That is quite confusing.
We usually do this automatically if a contributor accidently describes a missing feature as a bug. However, your issue was an actual bug, so it didn't make much sense to use the approach in this situation.

Thank you for reverting!
Since this was apparently just a mistake in the release notes, then we can close this issue, since the release notes are tied to the release and don't get re-issued.
My understanding of the process for the screen shots is that they get automatically generated when a release is built, so the process only really covers the current release in any case.
We can follow up any further comments about how we would like information to be shared for future releases in your new corona-warn-app/cwa-wishlist#397 items. I'm expecting this to happen more through blog publications based on past experience.
