Here we are. Review me!

Thanks to @blocktrron for the help writing some parts of this piece.

AFAIR Gluon 2019.1 is the last release set to be released with batadv-legacy. Maybe this should be noted in the release notes? Same goes for IBSS.

Added to important notes, sorted important notes by estimated attention span of the average reader. 😄

Does README.md and docs/user/getting_started.rst could use some new numbers, too?

sure, but are they part of "Add v2019.1 release notes" ?

Sure, was going to add them as soon as the release notes were ready, might as well do it now.

no they are not. I also disagree that new numbers are required. instead the document should be reworded such that it doesn't age as much. Maybe instead show how to obtain a list of releases and then use placeholders? BUT this is not a discussion that must happen before tagging the next release nor does it have to be in this very issue.

[mweinelt]

It's usually this commit that gets the updated version numbers and gets tagged as the release. If someone comes up with a scheme on how to do less version number updates on every release that's fine by me.

@mweinelt could you also remove unnecessary whitespaces e.g. at the end of lines?

[mweinelt]

Sounds good.

[neocturne]

Looking good. Besides the marked style issues, there is one more change that should be mentioned: We now include gluon-radvd by default.

[T-X]

Some batman-adv and multicast related comments.

[mweinelt]

I'm thankful for so many insightful remarks this time round.

The v2019.1 release is out, I've just branched v2019.1.x, the final release notes are up on readthedocs:

@mweinelt it seems we missed adding #1696 to the new supported hardware section back then?
should we maybe do this for the branch, although it's almost 8 months?
