I remember Martin having pain with changelogs and things last time, so
if you or Martin remember what they were exactly that would be a good
thing to check. I couldn't see any obvious issues looking at the
report.


The problem is that it's picking up only the last 30 days of commits,
instead of all of the changes since the 1.1 release. In this case, it
doesn't even seem to have done that, since it's missed both of the bug fixes
that we're doing this release for. ;-(  (The second of those was checked in
early this month, but it was still missed.)

For the last release, I used a patched version of the Maven plugin that
Niall built to fix this. I'm not sure if the plugin itself has been fixed
since then, though, in which case all we'd need to do is change config for
it.

In version 1.9 of the changelog-plugin a new option was added that might solve this problem. Add these lines to the project.properties file:

maven.changelog.date=lastRelease
maven.changelog.type=date

The plugin looks in the changes.xml file to find the previous release. Fileupload has such a file so that's good. I tried this on fileupload and the plugin choked because of an unparseable date "2006-05-??", which is the date set for the 1.1.1 release. So I changed that date to "In SVN" and ran maven site again and the plugin correctly picked up "2005-12-24" from the 1.1 release.

The version we have listed for the changelog-plugin in commons-build/pluginUpdate.txt is 1.8.2. The latest released version, which is the one I used in my test, is 1.9.1. Perhaps it's time to upgrade to 1.9.1?

A couple of other minor things I noticed: I'm guessing you built on a *nix
box, because the license and notice files have those line ends, which means
they don't come up right in notepad on Windows. And the manifest file says
it was built by "hen" - although around here we all know who "hen" is. ;-)
