Yeah, same here :)

What about <summary>?

Patch 1/3 translates the current entries directly to the new
format, without any kind of editing.

As I've said before, I have zero problems having leading
periods for all sentences in the release notes, especially
if you feel so strongly about it :) We will have to change
them all, though: an inconsistent style just won't do.

So, will you ACK this series if I promise to follow up with
a patch that adds leading periods to all <description>s?
