I'm talking about two changes actually. 1. I didn't see a Changelog file in the source of libaccounts-glib-0.5.8.tar.gz, that's actually abnormal for a OSS project 2. Please add some kind of summary in .changes file, currently it's just saying "update to 0.5.8", we can add a summary of multiple lines like: -update to 0.5.8 -Add new feature XXX -Fix BMC# XXX
