I never said it was redundant info. I said it was in the wrong place, in an overloaded field.
So are you suggesting that the changelog section be broken up into different fields? If it is just a field name you are concerned about you could break the changelog line into seperate fields and call each field by a different name. Do you agree that historical release information is useful to have available from an rpm query command?
