1. If something deserves a line in changelog, it is better to create an issue in Bugzilla. Try to read the changelog by yourself. Items that do not have a bugzilla number are harder to follow. I think that pull requests need a bugzilla entry as well. 2. Mailing list rules: http://tomcat.apache.org/lists.html#tomcat-users - No attachments - Do not top-post.
