Again, the problem is making the changelog update optional! No pull request should be merged if it doesn't include a proper changelog entry, that's how it's done. A missing changelog entry is like missing documentation or code comments, a pull request that doesn't update it shouldn't be merged! Making the changelog update go to just one person is the problem, that work should be distributed and the better person to do it is the one that made the change. -- Leandro Lucarella (AKA luca) http://llucax.com.ar/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- GPG Key: 5F5A8D05 (F8CD F9A7 BF00 5431 4145 104C 949E BFB6 5F5A 8D05) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For long you live and high you fly But only if you ride the tide And balanced on the biggest wave You race towards an early grave.
