The rpm changelog should be more like NEWS than a changelog; and usually
a summary of NEWS, at that. (imho, no packaging guidelines currently

I could swear I had written "don't copy the upstream changelog into the
rpm changelog, summarize in a line or two if you must.", but apparently,
I never did. :/

I wonder if we should change the way changelog is currently
generated for our packages ...
I'd actually say for now, keep it like it is. It is surprising how many
people look at rpm changelogs wanting to know what changed and when.
Of course, if Fedora's rpm package guide lines change and strongly
advocate differently, then we could look further.
