I'd rather avoid cluttering doc (but that can be solved by using a
subdir).
I'd need to change changes2html to read the last two files in the
early part of the year (not a massive task), and we'd want to
update any references we have to pkg-CHANGES.
I would not have any objections (just thinking out loud)
