I agree. I'm a fanatic about changelogs. I review the changelog on every update to every program on my computer. I found this announcement and changelog particularly well written, despite knowing little about SA.

Every change was followed by a coherent description long enough so I could get an idea of the nature of and need for the change, but not so long as to get bogged down in details I didn't understand. And if I wanted to investigate a change, adequate information was provided so that I could do some additional research.

Useful references were provided. Excitement was elicited. Gratuitous hype was absent.
