This is a CRITICAL bug fix release for everyone who is on the 6.4.x
series. Please upgrade to avoid potential data loss! The version has
been bumped to 6.5.0, please let everyone know to stay away from 6.5.x!
I am sorry for this.
See details in the Changelog and even more gory details in commit
message for commit 8fc7227189.

Merge in the new logging mechanism, and provide an --info feature that
will help with debugging. There is still some unstableness, so there
will be another release soon, but this should be no worse than 6.4.2 at
least...

Introduce Changelog.draft.rst in the releasing process. Using a dedicated file
for the WIP gives more readable diffs.

In software engineering the releasing process is an important step. Since most
contributors are comfortable enough with the submitting patches process, it is
good time to involve everybody to the releasing one.
Introduce the Changelog file to rely on it. It is the good place to put topics
not already released.
This way, releases benefit from the review of others in the same way we do for
patches.
