Agree.  There's also improved documentation (my presentation) and a fixed 
example.

Yes, I think we should release a 0.3.1 relatively soon, but let's give a little 
more time to hear about (and fix) any remaining issues.

Maybe next Friday, 2012-08-10?

I doubt most recipients would want to see a massive ChangeLog list of every 
change.  If they *do* want that, they'll get more and better information from 
git itself, and it's *easy* to download a copy of the whole git repo.

So I think the "ChangeLog" should *just* list the highlights - the top few 
reasons why someone would upgrade.  That would actually add value, by 
summarizing what's important (something git *can't* do).
