To Dominique's point right now the release notes listed on Boost-1.86 here: https://github.com/boostorg/boost/releases are "Update asio from master". It would take little additional effort to replace the head commit message with the link to the release notes. The 300 watchers and nearly 7k people with stars who will see that a new release was published on their GitHub feed are not all here on the mailing list.
