I don't mind having the revisions there, but _putting_ them there is a pain
when you don't commit to svn directly.

I agree with Dennis that the Changelog should give a good overview of the
user-relevant changes, and the current "copy the svn log the day before a
release" approach doesn't do a good job of that. Perhaps we could make it a
policy to include a changelog entry for commits (for user info, as opposed to
develper info in the svn log), and then Per or others who want revisions
included can add them later.
