I think changelog files are an artifact from revision control systems that 
nobody's used for the last twenty years.

We can either generate one from our git log or our tags, or we can just remove 
that file.

How I can find out changes if I download .tar archive from 
http://code.google.com/p/memcached/downloads/list ?

I'd prefer an up-to-date Changelog - 
no matter which version control system is used.
creation from git log would be fine for me.

I believe it would be much better to maintain changelog with user-visible 
changes 
outlined.  Having good changelog simplifies upgrades a lot.

Creating one from git would be better when nothing, but it's likely to be 
polluted with 
minor/non-user-visible/intermediate changes, and will have much less 
signal-to-noise 
ratio.

If you would like to volunteer to maintain notes, that's fine.  In the 
meantime, I'd just dump the tags like this 
(maybe reversed):

git tag | grep -v rc | xargs -n 1 git cat-file tag

Pretty sure we're good if we just link to the new release notes wiki page at 
the top
of the changelog as the source for future changelogs. We do write decent 
changelogs
abstracted from the git tree, they're just in the wiki (and in the tags) now.

I'll push a patch for this, unless someone whines :P
