That might work. I'll talk to gsh.It's not untypical to find Raspberry Pi documentation spread all over the place, and not always where one might expect it to be or where one looked for it.You can see the consistency in other products release / new info. Not so with PiOS. One rambling blog post, about the Trixie stable / release, it's hardly good documentation.
The announcement through the official Raspberry Pi News channel is how I discovered Trixie had left the Beta phase of development -
https://www.raspberrypi.com/news/trixie-the-new-version-of-raspberry-pi-os
I think the Beta Testing forum should have sub-forums so a sub-forum can be locked and become an archive after a 'beta testing finished' announcement but Raspberry Pi seem adverse to having nested forums.
As for docs, we now have a new and larger docs team who will be looking into making things a lot more consistent. Hopefully we will get rid of the ridiculously long online pages of information and break things up a bit more sensibly. There's a lot to do though, so it will take a while as they also have other stuff on their plates.
