RE: Does anybody else miss the CVS Monitor?

Other suggestions: I think that it would be nice if the first line of the log would be a 40- or 50-character "theme statement" that could be picked up. Something like Subject: [Commit by ben] 21.5 - rot13 all identifiers for readability where everything after the [] would be from the committer's log. The "21.5" is a pseudo-module, more or less arbitrarily chosen by the committer, as is the short description. Other examples would be unbundled packages such as "xemacs-devel", projects such as "KKCC", and functional divisions like "redisplay".
