Re: [Gramps-devel] POTFILES.in changes log

[Zsolt F. <zso...@gm...>]

Brian,

I don't have any strong feeling to either direction. I don't mind to
update the ChangeLog file, but for me it would be also fine to use
subversion log.

My only point here was that it is the worst to log the changes at two
places. So either let's log it in one of the ChangeLog files (I really
don't mind which one), or not log it at all.

Who's gonna decide?

Cheers,
Zsolt
