Do I have to run a cvs log on HEAD? :) Changelog is updated with every release.

Right now 2.3.2+the patches I sent for the package in fedora core 4 looks pretty stable and good. 2.3.3(when it comes out also looks goodish) but we're not done yet for this dev cycle and there are some api changes to be made. when 2.4 comes out then we'll be leaving the api alone. I discussed some milestones on yum-devel a little while back but then I got sidetracked into fedora buildsys hell so now I'm back from outerspace and I hope to get back on track to 2.4 and api stability. -sv
