Folks,

I've been taking care of the changelog since Sanna left.  The recent
outage of the svn-commits mailing list made me realise just how much
time I have been wasting trying to understand commits and summarising
them into pithy newsbites (complete with crossreferencing them to the
issue tracker).  Having two changelogs just makes this worse, and most
of the devs don't seem to think the changelog is of any value.

I suggest that people either be more conscientious in adding changes
to the changelog, that we move to an automatic system that extracts
the SVN comments and dumps them into a changes file with a timestamp,
or that the changelog be abandoned altogether.
