Happy to be helpful :-) As you may already know, the typical way for users to make use of the NEWS file is to install apt-listchanges. ...and a trick for you as Debian developer: do a "dpkg-reconfigure apt-listchanges" and enable listing of both news and changelogs, and set it to ask before continuing. That way you follow the detailed changes of *all* packages on your own system every time you update packages, so you notice trends of doing things smarter, which you might want to adopt in the packages you are involved in maintaining. > I added my notes to yours and committed this change so you might see > it soon enough.
