BTW why can't the update message be the last changelog entry by default? I'd rather require people to write meaningful changelogs than forcing them to pipe the info in a different system.
+1, i think this is a sane way to minimize perceived burden while still getting useful information into update notification mechanisms. Hell, unless there is some pretty stellar guidance for notification texts that convinces us otherwise, I expect the general practice will be to cut and paste of the changelog text...because its the easiest way to satisfy a notification text requirement. We already sort of have a mechanism to help us cut and pass changlogs for cvs commit messages. If we make the last changelog entry the default update message, which can be overwritten by a more expansive message on a case by case basis, that would suit me just fine. -jef"just need to figure out how to make update notification texts look pretty in the output of a yum cmdline call"spaleta -- Fedora-maintainers mailing list Fedora-maintainers@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers -- Fedora-maintainers-readonly mailing list Fedora-maintainers-readonly@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers-readonly
