so what ? counter-example: http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Change-Logs.html > kernel doesn't use a ChangeLog file > systemd doesn't use a ChangeLog file > bluez doesn't use a ChangeLog file > connman doesn't use a ChangeLog file > kernel doesn't use a ChangeLog file > node doesn't use a ChangeLog file > go doesn't use a ChangeLog file > pulseaudio doesn't use a ChangeLog file > > v8 uses a ChangeLog file that's really a NEWS file > webkit uses a semi-automated ChangeLog file, creating the commit > message from the changelog. And it's stupid. Been there. and i'm sure i can find HUNDREDS of libs with changelog. I have as many arguments as you have. > And WE are back to 90's maintaining that stupid files ourselves to be clear : I don't like our NEWS file. For me: ChangeLog should contain exactly what its name means : log of changes. Not all of changes of course. NEWS means what's new : that is, entries for the release, API additions, deprecations, and eventually the mention of a big improvement or a fix of a really big bug. That is, all the improvements part should go away, as I agree that it duplicates what is in ChangeLog. raster and others add that part, i accepted it. But I don't like it. And that's not the only stuff that I don't like but that i have accpeted in that project. > > And Vincent, please stop taking it personal and insulting the others. > Use "stupid" for ideas. Not people. the conversation is heated, that's all. I'm from south of France and we are not calm people, there. His answer upset me because what he said was almost an insult to what I did in Evil's ChangeLog. But nobody noted that. So I won't apologize.
