I got the reference to the page from the repo itself
- https://github.com/mirror/ncurses/blob/master/ANNOUNCE

"Full manual pages are provided for the library and tools.

   The ncurses distribution is available at ncurses' homepage:

     https://invisible-island.net/archives/ncurses/ or
     https://invisible-mirror.net/archives/ncurses/ 
"

The changelog can also be found in:
- https://github.com/mirror/ncurses/blob/master/NEWS

I paraphrased the changelog incorrectly and incompletely:

I used AI assistance when drafting the commit message, which contributed 
to the inaccurate summaries. I should have verified the generated text more 
carefully against the upstream changelog before submitting.

I will send a v2 with a proper commit message covering all intermediate 
snapshots, written from the upstream NEWS file.              

Best Regards,
Shubham
