Description
currently the script just says:
src/main/scala/MakeReleaseNotes.scala: println(s"# don't forget to\n${scala.util.Properties.envOrElse("EDITOR", "mate")} ../scala-lang/download/index.md ../scala-lang/documentation/api.md ../scala-lang/_config.yml")
but the manual changes you need to make to download/index.md are annoying

Research direction
Start in src/main/scala/MakeReleaseNotes.scala and inspect the current prompt alongside download/index.md. Identify which manual changes the release process requires and determine how the script should update that file automatically. Done means the release workflow no longer depends on manually editing download/index.md; no test file is mentioned in the issue.
