Hey,

As a user, I often wanted to see what is fixed in a library. As there is 
no ChangeLog (afaics), I have to look at the commits in cvs web (in svn, 
now), which is not very simple to use.

So I wanted to know why there were no ChangeLog.

I know some other big projects, and they use tools to create and commit 
automatically a ChangeLog. Here are 2 of them:

(for cvs, but i think it can be modified for svn)

and

PS: i've not subscribed to the boost dev ML. Maybe someone can forward 
that mail to that list.
