I'm talking about deleting changelog entries OLDER than a certain point.
I think this is a reasonable request. Delete everything older than 2/3 years from being copied into binary rpm packages. Otherwise we add this as additional overhead to each package maintainer to remove old lines and move them to some "history file" within the src.rpm.

I would say, that rpm can strip everything but the last, say ten, entries from the binary rpms.
