I've now reviewed the list and and made my own proposed summary: http://wiki.darcs.net/changes%20since%202.5 The format I'm using follows what's been done for previous recent releases, where there are basically two sections: "Important Changes" and "Issues Resolved". It seems 2.8 is very close to being read to ship. There was some discussion of disabling --packs by default, but it seems that still needs to be done. Also, today Ganesh nominated the bug entitled "unpull hangs forever" as something that should be targeted for 2.8. On the one hand, I would love it could be fixed ASAP, because I'm spending hours at work now to downgrade to 2.4.4 as a workaround. On the other hand, it's not a regression since 2.5.2 (it's a regression since 2.4.4), and there no reason why a "2.8.1" release couldn't follow shortly after 2.8 with this fix. One positive side effect of ChangeLogging work: I found more than 10 issues in the bug tracker that had been resolved by patches, but had not been marked as resolved in the bug tracker. I was able go ahead and mark them as resolved and close them out.
