A last note on this, then i'll stop responding to myself :)

After looking at some ChangeLog's of different projects, it seems like
the standard format is:

DATE NAME EMAIL
* LIST OF FILES: description of changes to those
* LIST OF FILES:

description of changes to those


I've seen those two versions prominently, i'd suggest the first one
since it needs less space :)
i.e
* BUILD, DETAILS: updated to 0.4.5pre3, fixed BUILD to not
install to /usr/local
