I don't object to that, either.  The question is: what we will require
the Git log messages to contain then?  Currently, the entire ChangeLog

retired, what will remain?  That was the crux of the recent
discussion.

Well, I personally will lament the loss of that information.  It's up
toy you-all to decide how much does that weigh.
