I like the changes page as a "simplified, user-friendly" list of notable changes
made for each release.  The defect/RFE tracking system has the details for the
initiated users when desired.

Yes and no. I've always seen it as a "technical" changelog of the
project. When end-users create issues, the summary is not always
understandable so we end up with a list of "things" beings solved.

The changes.xml allows to describe in more details what happened. It's
a good thing actually and it's certainly a good alternative for people
not using an Issue tracker that maven handles.

- Keeping it in a maven-changes-plugin brings M1 and M2 more in
sync than they were before, which eases migration pains.

Hi,
I agree with you and I think that the information should be in the scm comments to refer to the bug tracking system. We have developed such a maven plugin that parses subversion comments to create a changelog page with only significant modifications displayed and links to the corrected bugs if needed. So users can see in what state each release and the trunk is.
I hope to be able to release it publicly.
If you feel this is something useful I would be able to convince my boss more easily.
Emmanuel
