(Sorry, I managed to send a previous version of this before it was finished.)

However, every commit that is made with an awfully vague commit message and no
ChangeLog entry just increases my fear that this will never become less
chaotic. I've mentioned this repeatedly. I cannot recommend that GNOME 
uses a system that is not maintained with some discipline, and I would hope 
that we could learn from how you are fixing these problems.

For the nth time (not necessarily to you personally), please make proper 
ChangeLog entries.

For instance, this is not good enough:
