Which is actually fine. Well, I can see wanting a particular changelog, but I
realized and accepted they'd be bundled together.

Aha! Yes, that's what's doing it. That makes sense now. Confusing, but it
makes sense.

Hmmm. I'll have to consider whether that's what I want. I'd just as soon see
a solution tht would have the Main changelog come underneath the main wiki
name, and leave it at that.
