+
+ Every new version or revision of the package should be marked by a '*'

+ DD MMM YYYY; your_name <your_email> changed_file1, changed_file2: Your
+ explanation should follow. It should be indented and wrapped at a line width
+ of 80 characters. The changed_files can be omitted if they are obvious; for
+ example, if you are only modifying the .ebuild file and committing a new rev
+ of a package. Any details about what exactly changed in the code should be
+ added as a message when the changes are committed to cvs, not in this file.
