I thought the old change logs were gone for good when the old wiki went down. Good to have them back. From 0.11.1 on we have a complete changelog in the tracker, but the entries for the older releases should indeed go back into the wiki.

[ElderTroll]

Is that something I can do?

[Zini]

Sure. I think you need to add yourself to the wiki editor group in your forum user settings to get wiki editing rights (or something like that; been a while since I had to do it).

[ElderTroll]

Alright, I updated it.

[Zini]

I like the look of it. It's actually a bit cleaner than what we have on the issue tracker. I think we should also add any new release to this page (contrary to my previous statement).

[werdanith]

So now we have 2 changelogs, plus the issue tracker:
http://openmw.org/wiki/index.php?title=ChangeLog
http://openmw.org/wiki/index.php?title=Project_History

The new one seems less of an eye-strain.

[Zini]

Oops. Well, the new one looks slightly better.
