Need help finding Analytics' Release Notes.

I've been searching for nearly two hours and been unable to find access to IBM Cognos Analytics v 11.2 or higher "Release Notes".

I can certainly find - pretty easily - v 11.1 and prior.  And, I can find "What's New..." for multiple versions of 11 and 12 too.

Any hints for how to find - or links to - 11.2 and 12.anything Release Notes?  Did IBM Cognos stop publishing Release Notes or replacement with a document of a different name?

Interesting! The URL for the 11.2.x release notes actually displays the 11.1.x release notes content.
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/cognos-analytics/11.2.0?topic=SSEP7J_11.2.0/com.ibm.swg.ba.cognos.rdm_analytics.doc/c_relnotes_bi.htm

For the 12.0 documentation, I get a warning saying "We didn't find a matching topic in the product version you requested. Would you like to go to the 12.0.0 homepage?"

It looks to me like IBM has changed the structure of the documentation - at least for 12.0 - so there is no longer a Release Notes section. Not sure what is going on with 11.2 though.

It's probably worth raising a ticket with support to find out where the Release Notes content now lives (if anywhere).

Cheers!

Meep!
