OK, with your approval, and the attachment of the original .changes file to
support scripts which want this format, I think that all of the previous

To clarify, I think it would be great to extract the complete changes, but
this doesn't need to block the initial deployment. It would be sufficient
to include the information currently available in .changes (since that's no
worse than what we have today).
