Subject: Please write decent changelogs
Hey guys, since I'm comaint for this module, a coworker passed on a concern he had directly to me - regarding the content and formatting of the changelogs (http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/KRISTINA/MongoDB-0.42/Changes). Could folks kindly provide more information here that would be useful for determining whether an upgrade is needed (e.g. is a feature being added? is a bug being fixed, and if so, what is the bug? etc), and the date of each release? Dave Rolsky recently wrote on this subject and had lots of excellent tips - http://blog.urth.org/2011/01/changes-file-how-and-how-not-to.html thanks :) (sorry for the crude message medium; I couldn't think of a better way to contact all maintainers.) -ETHER
Good ideas, thanks for the link. I'll try to make the Changes more helpful for the next release. I'll leave this open until then.
