I have added Bug and RFE (Request for Feature Enhancment) categories for
each of the OpenG Toolkit packages. This is one important step towards
having a more formal development and release process. For each package
release, we need to include a listing of all bug fixes and new features in
the release notes/changelog. It will be up to the developers working on a
toolkit component to capture this information during the development
process. Can we automate this somehow? Can CVS be used to automatically
generate reports of commits between two tags (for example "rel-1.0" and
"rel-1.1")? One idea that I had was to keep a changelog.txt file in each
CVS module root folder and commit this file, itself, to CVS. Should a
changelog file be included inside a package?
