Thanks fo everyone involved into migration :)

Next on the list: start pushing changes.
It's quite a lot of stuff actually and I'll start with the libtc split
in a few minutes.
HEAD (or the branch formerly known as) will be a little unstable for a
few days.

Next weekend I'll start to push the repo on berlios, and start applyign
fix into the 1.1.1 queue :)

I agree enterely. My proposal is to gzip and leave the current ChangeLog
as historical reference, then start from scratch with a new one, but
much more terse and user-oriented (ready to be cut'n'paste-d into the
release annoucement).
Something like that

[TYPE] - date - author (email)
* component: max-three-line-description

(no more references to actual sources)

with TYPE something like

ENH - new feature/consolidation of a new one
FIX - bugfix
DOC - guess? :)

E.g. translating a few log entries:

OLD:
2009-01-26 Francesco Romani  <fromani at gmail dot com>
  * src/framebuffer.c src/framebuffer.h testsuite/test-tcframefifo.c
  fix new framebuffer code by adding priority queues.
  Switch from (broken) pseudo-sliding window approach to more robust,
  albeit perhaps less elegant, priority queue.
  Also add first unit-tests.

NEW:
[FIX] 2009-01-26 Francesco Romani (fromani at gmail dot com)
* transcode: fix incorrect frame ordering problem.

OLD:
2009-01-01 Francesco Romani <fromani at gmail dot com>
  * import/tcprobe.c
  skip '.' and '..' when scanning a directory.

[FIX] 2009-01-01 Francesco Romani (fromani at gmail dot com)
* tcprobe: skip '.' and '..' when scanning a directory.

(Ok, kind of cheating here)

Bests,
