Cover letters don't end up in the changelog, and some people (myself
included) never usually read the things unless they have questions about
the patches.  Your patches should be simple enough to stand alone on
their own, no need for a complex description in a cover letter, so the
descriptions in the patches need to convey what is happening and why
they are needed.

thanks,
