I thought that it _was_ in Phobos. We had moved to a model where each project
had its own changelog file with the idea that they'd be merged together in the
primary changelog for releases (which would presumably be the one in d-
programming-language.org). Having them separate makes it easier to keep track
of bugs and avoids the permissions issues with commit access to d-programming-
language.org. It also has the benefit of generally tying a changelog change to
the commit where the changes were actually made.
Definitely move it back. Each of the projects should have their own
changelog.dd which is used to generate the master changelog for releases.
