I agree. Consistency is key to readability. I guess we'll have to go make a Packaging Guideline now that says what characters are appropriate for use as bullets in changelogs.
yeah if common sense does not work we need a guideline.
Seems like that was his goal all along. Terrorize us into forcing a policy on what is or is not allowed there.
The existing guidelines seem to cover this case (ie, the changelog as discussed doesn't follow any of the suggested formats): http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Changelogs
That doesn't prevent concoction of something that technically does follow the format to introduce more odd stuff.
