cvs2cl [1] generates change logs files from the log messages.

#show just the comments, which files, 
#date+time and who
cvs2cl.pl -l "-rTAG_1:TAG_2"

#show just the comments, which files, 
#date+time, who and what file revisions with tags
#this is what I use most often.
cvs2cl.pl -r -t -l "-rTAG_1:TAG_2"

#look here to see more options for the string "-rTAG_1:TAG_2"
cvs log --help
