Yeah, the first option would be the ChangeLog file. As you've probably seen, it's automatically build from the code repository commit messages. The second option would be the much shorter 'Changes' summary included in each release announcement. For instance, check out the announcement of Cherokee 0.99.40: http://lists.octality.com/pipermail/cherokee/2010-January/012169.html Of course, there's room of improvement, although I don't think we are doing that bad at this respect.

I am all for this one. It's a superb idea! +1. We should look for someone to take over this task though. Even if it isn't a time consuming task, a highly committed person would be required to perform the task. Would you be willing to take on the task? -- long shot, I know :-) > What do you think about it? I think both points could make Cherokee > server a better experience for administrators.
