Right. I find that in our system, change announcements seem to be grouped
with package uploads for obvious reasons, and thus I sought to merge the two.
The change announcement that could be uploaded with a new set of package files
answers the questions "what have you uploaded", and "why did you need to change
the package". 
However, I don't see any reason why we should prohibit a more informal change
announcement to be posted _without_ a package upload as well.
