/usr/portage/sys-apps/portage/ChangeLog says to refer to [some long viewcvs url]
to see the change log for portage. why is the changelog simply not included in
the file itself ? (on console mode, with no X, no mouse, no gpm, it's damn
annoying to  try and load that url.)

as far as i can tell, every other ebuild's changelog contains the actual text of
the log; the ChangeLog for portage should as well.

it's a loooooooooooooooooooong changelog file.  perhaps the URL can be shortened
though...
