http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_regression:
A software regression is a software bug which makes a feature stop
functioning as intended after a certain event
In this case, it used to work, and now it doesn't. We have "regression tests" to catch regressions, but the word "regression" is not limited to whether the code is tested. If we know that something has broken in this release that worked before, then yes, it needs to be mentioned in the release notes. We should put the word "regression" into the ticket keywords when a ticket is associated with a regression so that we can search for them when writing the release notes.
