The one single reason why I'm very happy about our ChangeLog file policy 
is that I can grep it easily.  Listing the changelog of the whole tree via 
svn (or anything else) up to some years ago is very slow and generates 
quite some load on the server.  Sure there are various work-arounds for 
that, but I'm happy to not have to resolve to such work-arounds.


Ciao,
Michael.
