I read it, but I still have the feeling that maven community do not understand what exactly this improvement is and why it is interesting. This improvement does exactly what the maven-changes-plugin do. The only difference is that the actual maven-changes-plugin uses a changes.xml file in src/changes/ directory. You have to write it and manage its evolution by hand. This is a problem and error-prone. In order to address this problem, this improvement is looking directly to the scm commit comments and aggregate them to generate the report. So, the actual maven-changes-plugin and this improvement generate the same report but from a different data source. I still don't really understand why it's a problem to add a new goal for the maven-changes-plugin for this improvement. Thanks, Rémy
