Yeah. Current trends are: for every 1000 patches sent there's 
maybe one patch that has a tad too much information in its 
changelog - but instead offers good entertainment in the 
changelog so it's still perfectly fine. 990 patches have too 
little information. The remaining 9 are just fine.

Thanks,
