I meant to add:

Please add a couple of lines to the CHANGES file to describe the
bugfixes / new features.  What I'm aiming for here is to have something
that is not as terse as the ChangeLog that summarizes changes in plain
English, which can be copied and pasted into release announcements.  If
we don't keep up with it, then somebody has to go back and sift through
all the commits.  It also makes it easier for someone to quickly look at
CVS and see what has been fixed since the last release.
