Absolutely agreed! If what I wrote was misunderstood, it was intended
as a reply to those who were complaining that it was so difficult to
keep up with what developers *needed* to know. I was trying to point
out that you do not *need* to know this: it is optional (although very
useful).
BTW, I presume that the changelog is sent to the submitters of the
closed bug reports?
