changelog change
Thantos:
After a discussion with the developers we've decided to no longer include the changelog in the packages. The file is currently half a meg and will only continue to grow. We suspect that the majority of our users don't read the changelog and we'd like to save them the effort of uploading it to their server if they can't upload the entire package.
Now we know some of you do like to read the changelog and the changelog is still important to us so we'll be making it available as a seperate download.
This change will happen in all future packages but previous packages will not be modified.

perhaps as a page on the site might be a way to handle it best? I dunno
But that sounds like a good idea, i never realized it was so large (i am used to reading the changelog from SVN, though, to be perfectly fair)
Tony Reid:
I was actually thinking about this yesterday when I downloaded 2.0
SleePy:
I never upload the changelog. I only upload index.php, SSI.php, Sources and Themes/default.
I am glad for the change though, its a waste of space that very few people even read.
Thantos:
Just incase it wasn't clear enough: the changelog will be available as a link from the download page.
