3 This is a nice feature but... can you include the CVS log in this parsing?
4 Most projects I know have that habit... every commit of mine includes bug
5 numbers unless there are no relevant bugs that apply but I see no reason to
6 clutter the changelog with that info. For that matter I've always though the
7 ChangeLog file should be auto generated from the cvs log in the first place
8 if it is meant to be that complete, the fact it isn't makes me think I'd
9 rather be putting directly consumable information in it.
