I've been using two scripts in the past which are nowhere near perfect but
do a nice job when it comes to generating changelogs.

The first script (http://ktown.kde.org/~frerich/fixed-bugs.sh) prints a list
of bugs which seem to be fixed since the last release - it does that by
grepping the last cvs logs for "xxxxx-done@bugs.kde.org". Just run that
script from any KDE CVS directory (e.g. kdenetwork/kopete).

The second script (http://ktown.kde.org/~frerich/make-changelog-item.sh)
expects one or more bug numbers and prints HTML output which describes the
fix. The HTML is suitable for use in the changelog-foo.php. Here's a test
drive to give you an idea:

frerich@daedalus:~/src/kde/kdenetwork/kopete> make-changelog-item.sh 75054 75128
<li>kopete: Fix <a href="http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75054">account preference doesn't work</a></li>
<li>kopete: Fix <a href="http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75128">Kopete forgets Display Name when going Back in Wizard</a></li>
frerich@daedalus:~/src/kde/kdenetwork/kopete>

Maybe this duo helps somebody, I found it to be quite useful. It'd be a
shame not to mention the results of your work in the changelog. :-)
