Thanks Gwern. Yes, we're looking for a volunteer to work on implementing this. One question is what the changelog format should be? Or should it just be uninterpreted text? One suggestion was for Hackage and the RSS feed to display the diff between the current and previous version of the changelog. Or perhaps we can do both, diff it and parse the result as haddock markup or something. So suggestions and volunteers welcome.
