Ahoi,

I'm getting mildly very irritated with the lack of easily accessible
ChangeLogs for our packages.

Apparently updating them stopped some time in August, so now there are
some outdated ChangeLogs that don't really serve any purpose, and the
easiest way for users to figure out why something changed is to yell at
the clumsy gitweb.g.o interface. So instead of grep we now need lots of
patience.

This does not look reasonable to me.

Can we please either properly remove ChangeLogs and tell people to not
be curious about changes, or make them useful again?

Thanks,

A Gentoo User.

I don't have strong feelings about this, but I'm happy with `git log` to tell me what's going on with packages. I would be okay with the ChangeLog files just being archived and removed.
