R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment:

Note that the older tradition was to *not* mention the contributor in NEWS 
(NEWS was just technical notes), but to mention them in the checkin message 
(and What's New, for things that make the What's New cut).  However, since we 
can't edit checkin messages post-commit like we could with SVN, I suppose this 
new convention (that some people have been following since well before the 
switchover...) is more practical.
