The only comments I would make is the subject tag for the trace files
is actually "tracing:" and not "trace:".

Also, even though the changes are minor, a simple change log would
still be nice.

Hi. Thank you for your comment. 
I will make sure to add the change log next time.
Please let me know if I should do it and make a v2. 

Best regards,
Ryan Chung

not.
