NEWS for NM 0.9 ?

["Dominique Leuenberger a.k.a DimStar" <dimstar opensuse org>]

Hi all,

Same as I asked about one year ago:
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/networkmanager-list/2010-August/msg00047.html

Would it please be possibly to maintain a NEWS file together with the  
checkins? This should not be a 'changelog' about every checkin, but a  
rough overview of what is actually worthy to be noted between version  
updates (a typo is not worthy imho).

As a downstream packager it is terrible always having to run after all  
kind of systems to find out what is new between any .minor release  
(here from 0.8.9997 to 0.9 for example) and why it would be worthy to  
package it for our users.

In plus, our packaging policy even disallows packaging new versions  
without a proper changelog entry.

Thanks for considering this in the future release cycle.

For 0.9 I assume there will be an announcement-mail coming out soon?

Dominique / DimStar
