Hear, hear.
You can't tell me that it's so much more difficult to write:
* New upstream release
- Fix such-and-such behavior (closes: #nnnn)
instead of just:
* New upstream release (closes: #nnnn)
The question in my mind is, if you can make some of your users and
fellow developers happier just by adding a few words of detail to your
changelog, why would you *not* do it? What's the point? Add the six
words and get on with life.
Sheesh.
