Rakesh R commented on ZOOKEEPER-2672:
-------------------------------------

bq. Rakesh R and Michael Han, Even though I am leaning towards removing the 
file too, I think at least one voting round on dev@ or user@ before removing 
CHANGE.txt would be nice.
[~eribeiro], I have sent couple of mails about this. Please refer [zk user 
mailing list discussion 
thread|http://zookeeper-user.578899.n2.nabble.com/Re-CHANGES-txt-td7582909.html]

I believe, this jira needs to be concluded(to avoid confusions - after the 
migration to git CHANGE.txt is not the source of truth) before cutting 3.4.10 
release. I'm planning to remove CHANGE.txt file in 2 days time frame, 8 
February 2017, 6:00 PM (PST), if there is no objection. Thanks!

> The CHANGE.txt is already not the source of truth of what's changed after we 
> migrating to git - most of the git commits in recent couple of months don't 
> update CHANGE.txt. The option of updating CHANGE.txt during commit flow 
> automatically is none trivial, and do that manually is cumbersome and error 
> prone.
> The consensus is we would rely on source control revision logs instead of 
> CHANGE.txt moving forward; see 
> https://www.mail-archive.com/dev@zookeeper.apache.org/msg37108.html for more 
> details.
