the first time I touch a package in January each year. Is there any value
in having guidelines to encourage some policy in this area, so maintainer
approach it in a consistent way ?
I would suggest we even go as far as having a script to automatically
purge changelogs when branching dist git. Cull everything older than
the last NN Fedora releases, for some reasonable value of NN.
I think rather than this, we should bite the bullet and remove changelogs
entirely from spec files.
