I never realized that. I just tried it, and it gives me a changelog from 
now back to 2003; I wonder if we could make it detect the last release 
date and give you only the relevant bits?

Also added. I've uploaded the changes.

Note to self: when the CMS stalls on the "Uploading data..." dialog box, 
wait a bit, then click on the folder in the folder tree again. Then you 
can republish. Any other operation seems to crash Firefox.

Cheers,
