## Bugfix Releases
+### 2.16.23 (In Development)
+
+* NoteDb Migrator Fixes and Improvements
+
+ * Introduce a new option `--force-state-change-with-skip` in the
+ NoteDb migrator to force state change of the migration if projects are skipped.
+
+ * Introduce a new option `--verbose` in the
+ NoteDb migrator to display more information about the migration progress.
+
+ * Log the NoteDb migration progress every 1000 changes.
+
+ * Use multiple threads per project for improving the performance when there are
+ a lot of changes per project. The impact is negligible on projects with a limited number
+ of changes.
+
+ * Ensure that all exceptions happening during the migration are properly logged.
+
+* PolyGerrit UI Fixes
+
+ * [Issue 11706](https://bugs.chromium.org/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=11706):
+ Enable the ability to modify the commit message as part of change in-line edit.
+
+ * [Issue 13328](https://bugs.chromium.org/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=13328):
+ Project dashboard links stored in 'My' menu (GWT) lead to 'cannot load page' when
+ switched to PolyGerrit.

+ Cannot add group to (cc-)review if its UUID is not the internal one.
+
+* Replication plugin Fixes
+
+ * [Issue 12769](https://bugs.chromium.org/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=12769):
+ Pending replication events can delay the Gerrit startup for too long.
+
+* Documentation Updates
+
+ * Introduce the
+ [documentation of Gerrit logs](https://gerrit-documentation.storage.googleapis.com/Documentation/2.16.23/logs.html)
+ format and the meaning of each field.
+
+ * Clarify [how to resolve common Bazel issues](https://gerrit-documentation.storage.googleapis.com/Documentation/2.16.23/dev-eclipse.html)
+ with Eclipse project generation.
+
