@subsection Format of ChangeLog
A change log entry starts with a header line that contains the current
date, your name, and your email address (taken from the variable
@code{add-log-mailing-address}). Aside from these header lines, every
line in the change log starts with a space or a tab. The bulk of the
entry consists of @dfn{items}, each of which starts with a line starting
with whitespace and a star. Here are two entries, both dated in May
1993, with two items and one item respectively.
