ok, so I probably only searched for the only entry that was dropped 
somehow. :) Maybe you could include that back somewhere, as this is 
something that has been pretty annoying for many users:

"Some long standing bug in editing the date and datetime fields (when 
client/server are on different timezones) has been adressed. (Bugs 
#1697, #1465, #4849, #5183). Also some minor gremlins have been fixed on 
these fields (click-checkbox to set the current date/time on year, time 
and timesec fields)."

So the policy now is to update NEWS.txt on each future commit? Should we 
drop the wiki page? When will the final editing take place? I would have 
found it much more productive if we could collaboratively editor that 
file on Wiki like we do with "pending documentation" and just publish 
the "full editted stuff" at the end, but ok.. I probably was the only 
one that had that wish.

Cheers,
Ernesto
