nice. I'd prefer this, as long as we keep up on the versioning. In particul=
ar, any cherry picking back to a point release, 2.7.2 etc will need the ent=
ry being re-edited

in the meantime, I celebrate Haohui's volunteering -though need to warn it =
was the thought of making the 2.7.x and 2.6.x changes consistent which worr=
ied me there -you end up having to re-arrange entries across four files
