2010/5/29 Johannes Schlüter <johannes@schlueters.de>:Having the changelog updated automatically used to be a really useful thing, because there also existed a mailing list that sent daily (or weekly?) diffs to the changelog file. This way you could easily follow development of PHP without having to subscribe to the commits mailing list.

But if we ship it, it should be correct and at least since 5.2.0 we ship a wrong (not updated) file. And that I consider bad. So I ask somebody to either remove it or make sure it's updated (automatically or by adding instructions to README.RELEASE_PROCESS) in all places.
