One can easily generate such a ChangeLog before a release, with a coreutils-like approach. Just type "make gen-ChangeLog".So they go though the trouble of fixing typos, but only in the ChangeLog files in the release tarballs (where*very* few people will ever look)?
In a larger sense you're right, though. I typically don't look at ChangeLogs. and as I understand it you don't either. As time goes on I expect more developers will gravitate to the new system where if you want to look at the change logs you run 'git log' or type 'C-x v l' or whatever floats your boat. I wouldn't be surprised if most developers are there already.
