I could keep each weekly summary which could then be grouped together for
a cumulative summary.  Not any more work really.

The only problem there is that I don't think patches are available for
each individual checkin.  And since SGI uses its own internal source
control system I'm not sure the individual checkins could be pulled from
CVS.  So you wouldn't be able to get (for example) release 1.2 with
patches 20020914-3 and 20020923-1.  I might be wrong, though.  Numbering
the summaries wouldn't be hard, but a link to the CVSweb files would solve
two suggestions:  a list of the files changed and an ID number (revision
number) of the change.  So I guess I'll just link to CVSweb.
