Hey, Not sure if they were automated before, but [releases](https://github.com/zeit/next.js/releases) do not contain any description since the lerna switch. I use [lerna-changelog](https://github.com/lerna/lerna-changelog) for most of my repos and automatically update the release on GitHub whenever a tag is pushed with a [CircleCI job](https://github.com/tusbar/circleci-samples/blob/master/.circleci/config.yml#L127-L139)
