This could be more clear by saying _WHICH_ series. Given the content is
annotation only it likely can be assumed Lunar. But I would rather
prefer explicit. Also, instead of adding a ton of bug references, which
become multiple mentions in the changelog, I would rather choose ONE bug
report that is generic and good enough and duplicate the others against
it. Then one also needs only one justification in one report. At least
to me that sounds much simpler...
