Hi,

Thanks for your input, but actually this isn't a bug[1].
The changelog in the version of the package you are referring to was left
out on purpose because the changelog in the release upstream tarball is
worse than useless[2] and was only included in the release by mistake.
Future versions of MiMMS will have a more sane changelog, which will be
included in the Debian package. =)
[1] I can state this with authority because I am both the packager and the
upstream. ;)
[2] Because it is terribly misleading and doesn't reflect developments
made in the initial SVN 2.x development repository. The only detailed
change information about the discontinued 1.x series.
