changelog change
Posted by Thantos on January 04, 2008, 03:36:40 PM
After a discussion with the developers we've decided to no longer include the changelog in the packages. The file is currently half a meg and will only continue to grow. We suspect that the majority of our users don't read the changelog and we'd like to save them the effort of uploading it to their server if they can't upload the entire package.
Now we know some of you do like to read the changelog and the changelog is still important to us so we'll be making it available as a seperate download.
This change will happen in all future packages but previous packages will not be modified.

But that sounds like a good idea, i never realized it was so large (i am used to reading the changelog from SVN, though, to be perfectly fair)
I am glad for the change though, its a waste of space that very few people even read.
Is it linked in the admin area? That would suffice.
No offense to the author, but compared to todays quality themes, it looks like a Baboons ass.
That has been up for discussion before. And it's something I'd support.
I have to agree here. I think having the default come with it and then the others as themes for download would be great.
Same here.
