what the....no!!
changelogs have to be verbose, i'm still often missing hints in the
current changelogs, commenting that patch_a and update_b got in because
of a security issue. some boxes need only be updated for the sake of
security, so one would be happy only watching for <security patch> lines
in the kernel changlogs. giving credits to the people who found the
problem is still possible by mentioning the (source of the)original
advisory.
