I'd love to have those things.

At the moment, the ChangeLog is generated as part of the release process and
is not checked in anywhere.

Ideas on exactly how to do this and volunteers to help implement it are
welcome.

The former (a separately-available changelog, linked to from the release announcement) is what other software projects call release notes. The ntpd project also has something called release notes (on Dave Mills' website), but unfortunately this does not take the form of a log of changes in functionality; rather it is a zero-based description of how the 'current' release (without, BTW, explicitly identifying it) of V4 differs from V3.

So I guess that what I'm asking for is indeed something new, but (assuming that the release notes are under version control) should be able to be manually derived from the changelog of that document.

The latter however (advice from the project team as to the urgency of deploying this release) is in fact a narrative on the compelling event leading to the release. Whoever takes the decision to release would be the source of this information.

Hope this helps.

Regards, Jan
