Writing good changelog entries

 

Hello everybody,

you might have seen the weekly summary I just sent to the ubuntu-phone
mailing list and others places. This is something the Touch team from
now on wants to do weekly and we need your help.

Ricardo wrote a script to summarise changes which went to a specific
PPA, which formed the basis of the summary. It's clear that many changes
which didn't turn up very visibly in the changelog entries were not
considered for the update. In the future it'd be great if you could be
as specific in the changelog entries as you can and credit people with
their work.

If I missed some heroic work of some of you, it's my fault, but I hope
the above explains why this happened. Please let's all try to be
clearer. It'll make it easier to credit people for their work and do
better publicity for what to watch out for.

Have a great day,
 Daniel
