Since we have ChangeLogs again (November) they've been in backwards |
| 4 |
order. Which is not really good - it breaks tools (like emerge |
| 5 |
--changelog) and makes it harder to read for humans. |

As a bonus it's inconsistent because the old Changelog-2015 files are in |
| 8 |
normal order, and the new ones are reversed. Which sense no makes. |

The suggestions in the bug are of great entertainment value, but they |
| 11 |
all avoid the simple idea of generating ChangeLogs in changelog (reverse |
| 12 |
chronological) order. Which would fix all tools and make almost every |
| 13 |
consumer of changelogs happy. |

So, can we please, after over 4 months of stalling, just fix this |
| 16 |
embarassment? |
