trivial news fragments aren't getting added to the CHANGELOG.rst when generating a release. I noticed this a few times now; finally ticketing it.

N could be anywhere between 3-10 ?

Whoa that's kind of wild -- I wonder why include the changelog at all in the man pages?

Old Unix convention is to declare significant changes in the manpage.
