Alas, it's not just the pretest, it's the entire life time of the release branch. That life time is just starting for the emacs-25 branch; I'm quite certain that at lease Emacs 25.2 and probably also 25.3 will be delivered from that branch. That's another 2 years. I don't think we want to wait that long for your useful corrections and general loving care of ChangeLog.2 ;-) I hope we will find a better solution to this.
