And, if you look deep at our ChangeLogs, after years and years of use I'm sure you wouldn't take more than half an hour to find some mistake (I'm not talking about typos, but missing, wrong or duplicate entries, etc.). That may be true, but it is not a argument to make it impossible to fix incorrect entries. Having proper entries is good for developers, and for copyright reasons.
