Re[2]: Bug report: don't display changelog by default after installation

Hello!

SK> Guys, guys, we're talking about the installer here (you know: the thing
SK> you run once every few months).

SK> The default to show the changelog will be kept for very good reasons: a
SK> changelog is important, users must know what has changed. They can
SK> choose to ingore that information if they want, but then they also have
SK> to live with the consequences.

  Why not present the changelog in advance, then? Why make someone
  "live with the consequences" instead of allowing to choose if the
  consequences are desirable?

  You may add an extra "README" page after (or before) the licence
  agreement.
