Any comment on this?

The concrete proposal is:

* Rename gdb/doc/ChangeLog -> gdb/doc/ChangeLog.old
* Rename gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog -> gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog.old

... and all future patches in these areas will just use gdb/ChangeLog.

The rationale is that many patches span these directories, so keeping
their ChangeLog entries together makes sense.  On the flip side,
keeping them separate does not seem to add much value -- it is just
more work when preparing a patch.

Insight-related ChangeLogs would remain untouched.
I don't have an opinion about gdbserver/ChangeLog.

Tom
