Status of ACTION-249 ( change log corruption)

I've done some investigation into ACTION-249 - the corruption in the change
log and determined that the corruption occurs whenever we have URLs in our
CVS change comments.  The URL's are replaced by the string "revision
http://dev.w3.org#rev-01-TZDownload revision .".  For example the revision
string...

"Applied resolution for
http://www.w3.org/2002/ws/soapjms/tracker/issues/60"   [1]

...becomes...

"Applied resolution for revision http://dev.w3.org#rev-01-TZDownload
revision ."

Unfortunately the corruption originates in the XML version of the change
log [2] which is downloaded during the build.  The URL has already been
substituted in this file and the original information has been lost so it
won't be possible to fix the change log corruption without a better XML
source for the change log data.

We can discuss this on next week's call, but in the meantime I'll follow
this up with Yves to see if there is an alternative data source.

Mark
