It looks good, but as someone trying to avoid CVS I'm not sure I will ever use
it.
One general comment, weekly or daily summaries are nice, but a cumulative list
is even better.
Then someone can review all the activity since the last major release.
You could start a new cumulative list every time a release came out.
If you decide to go that way, I think a ID # would be good to have for each
line.
That way, the experts can tell us, get the xfs 1.1 release with the #1 and #2
patches and see if it fixes your problem.
