+
+I think I agree with both of you. :) It seems like it's both true that
+there's no point in keeping a GNU-style ChangeLog these days, and that
+if we make a release we should write an announce mail that directly
+mentions new user-visible changes as well as attaching the commit log.
+That smaller list of highly user-visible changes could live in NEWS,
+or in the announce mail, or both.

+
+I'm happy to do this if people think it would be useful, and I don't
+yet have a strong opinion on whether the releases should come with
+version numbers or timestamps.
+
+Thanks,
+
+- Chris.
