+==================================================
+
+Changelog format:
+-----------------
+
+1) When you commit a new debian revision to svn, ensure that your upload is not
+   targeted to unstable, but that it's marked as UNRELEASED 
+   
+2) If more than one person worked on the same debian revision you should mention
+   the author name before the relevant changelog lines
+
+3) 'Closes' statements should be lowercase and put at the end of the line
+
+For example:
+
+xfce4-foobar (0.0.0-1) UNRELEASED; urgency=low
+
+  (Joe Maintainer)
+  * Blah blah blah.                                               closes: #NNNNN
+
+  (Mark Twain)
+  * Foo foo bar bar.                                              closes: #NNNNN
