Then i would request to start with fresh ChangeLogs with new formats for
both the repository and old Changelogs can be renamed.

ie in the SSI repository we will have  
ChangeLog and ChangeLog.0( This is the old Changelog ). ChangeLog will
have the first line as previous cluster-tools ChangeLog can be found at
so and so place


in the ci  we will have ChangeLog,ChangeLog.0( this is ci-linux change
log ) and ChangeLog.cluster-tools( this is cluster-tools changelog ) and
we will have a new entry in ChangeLog saying the old cluster-tools
ChangeLog can be found in ChangeLog.cluster-tools. 

I would also say that the ChangeLog fromat can be 

DD/MM/YYYY	username <useremailaddress>
	* Changes 

see this . 
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/opendlm/opendlm/ChangeLog?rev=HEAD&content-type=text/plain

I found this format pretty useful when tracking bugs.
