Why did you remove my ChangeLog entry? I explicitly put that there to
document the change and because other ChangeLog entries for htdocs
related files also went into that file. If you feel they are better
documented in some other ChangeLog file please just tell me instead of
silently removing patches so I know why/where I should document these
things.

Thanks,

Mark

htdocs do not have changelogs entries; they never have.

Something more interesting is why htdocs do not get posted to frysk-cvs; 
I'm investigating.

This brings up the question: why don't htdocs have changelog entries?  I
can't see a good reason against having them, and there are benefits to
having changelog entries for this stuff, either way.

I also have to second Mark's opinion that simply removing his entry
rather than talking about it seems a bit harsh.  Obviously, Mark did
feel that there was a good reason to have a changelog entry for the
patch he commited.  That alone should be enough reason to make this a
matter to discuss.

	Cheers,
	Kris

To be honest I was just following what others do. As far as I know
htdocs changes are documented in the ChangeLog file since that is how I
found out where to document them. I also don't see much reason not to
have them. I was just surprised mine got deleted without any comment.

Cheers,

Mark

Remember, this web-only information is already available on the web via CVS.

Mark is right though, there are a few other stray change-log entries, 
I'll clean that up; and add a trap to ensure that any extra changelog 
entries don't stray into that top-level ChangeLog file.
