I'd prefer to keep it as HISTORY. It fits with the other filenames in a
spell. Just change the editor config so it'll switch to right syntax
when opening HISTORY files. Don't think that'll be to big of a burden,
you already have to do that with BUILD, DEPENDS and so on to get shell
script syntax highlighting.

Adding syntax tags to the HISTORY file (like "vim:set ft=changelog:" for
example) would be bad in my opinion.

I like the idea of switching to standard ChangeLog format though.
