Change Logs

Not sure that dates are so important as all the changes are tracked in git anyway. Version number would be important, however. But how does this differ from the info nominally kept in NEWS? Would we still need the NEWS file? --Walter 22:46, 7 February 2011 (EST)

For dates, yeah. In any case, people might use additional keys if they prefer. Might be NEWS as well, though some people (like me) will prefer "self contained" spec files (ie w/o NEWS). So, I guess having assumption that change log can be either in NEWS or in spec file, should be fine. Another reason to have changelog in spec (or in ini file format, ie not like arbitrary NEWS), is that it will be possible to use regular notation for translated strings, eg:

[v1]
changelog = en-text
changelog[ru] = ru-text
