The threshold for getting into the release notes is absolutely minimal,
and I think it would devalue the curation work that you are doing by
somehow combining the two data sets or making a third level based on the
release notes or something like that.

Personally, I think it's all fine as it is. Maybe an additional
adjective in front of "Contributor", but it's not a big deal IMO.
