We had the same discussion again in the past

http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/msg_51d268a7757fd90fbda77d373a2664f8.xml

and again

http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/gentoo/dev/262085

we can't keep having the same discussion.

The original changelog discussion is here

http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/msg_c3436497e445eaf86deea087788882e5.xml

There were no objections so we started using it

http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/msg_72fafb93225c9f5559415356eb093f44.xml

Can we please bookmark them for future reference?

Do we really need to make every single bit of development a formal
policy? Do we really need to discuss every single bit of development
in the mailing lists? When did we stop being developers because it was
a fun thing to do and turned into a bunch of mean people pointing
fingers at each other?
