Dear All,

Two quick comments:

1) Don't suggest that titles be 70 characters but that 80 is okay. Just 
say they should be at 70 characters and leave it at that.

2) +1 for Chandler's comment that what is really needed are ideas on how 
to write meaningful descriptions of what was changed.  Poorly written 
descriptions of what was changed is the number one reason I curse at 
commit logs.

-- John T.
