I'll try and get some docs written + some tools available as discussed
that make it a lot easier to do this nicely.

(BTW, ds, I've used cvs2cl today to look at what changed between
releases for the release notes.  I thought it was horrible :) Given some
of the commits I did today as well that shouldn't really be in a
ChangeLog, I really rather would have no ChangeLog at all than one done
by cvs2cl)

Please give it some other name.  or put it in docs/random instead.  But
don't clutter the top srcdir with ugly files like this :)  Yeah, in
fact, don't put it in the top srcdir, it has no right to be there
anymore.

Sounds like a plan.
