Re: [community-group] $deprecated property? (#118)

> it's useful to know when and why a decision was made. Seeing a simple history allows us to have context for a value but also allow any given tool to write to it and have that shared understanding in a way we haven't to date.

I see a connection with this issue : https://github.com/design-tokens/community-group/issues/157

This change log could include changes made by tools.
If a tool must change a value to make processable it could record this.

----

At the same time I wonder if tracking changes should be done externally?
git exists and a service like GitHub is really successful in providing a nicer UX to expose a git history for source code. 

Someone can make a service to provide something similar for design tokens.

----

If a change log should be part of the specification I still think it should be separate from the deprecated/state property.

A change log should encompass all aspects of a token (including deprecated/state).
@hereinthehive Maybe you can open a separate issue for this concept?
