This is the built in rpm command for listing the changelog of a rpm:
                rpm -qp --changelog xxxxx-toaster-yyy-zzz.src.rpm > 
site/changelogs/xxxxx-toaster.txt

If you want to keep the changelog within the wiki (instead of just linking to a 
text file) the best way to do it would be to use a mediawiki extension. And I'm 
happy to write it if you want to go this route. URLs would be, for example:
        
http://wiki.qmailtoaster.com/index.php/Special:ChangeLogs?f=simscan-toaster

It would load the changelogs from text files that are generated from the RPMs 
every 5 mins so they're always recent.
