+## Release Notes
+
+All pull requests are initiated with a `needs-release-note` label.
+There are many `release-note-*` label options, including `release-note-none`.
+If your PR does not require any visibility at release time, you may use a
+`release-note-none` label.  Otherwise, please choose a `release-note-*` label
+that fits your PR.
+
+Additionally, `release-note-none` is not allowed on PRs on release branches.
+
+Finally, ensure your PR title is the release note you want published at relase
+time.
