Are you sure?  This looks wrong to me, as a "*" starts a new item, and
every item should have a file (or list of files), followed by a location
within the file in () if useful and then a colon and the description of
the change.

Just putting * in front of every line because there is a line break
doesn't seem right to me, and I never did that.  It's also not how emacs
fill-paragraph formats it when confronted with the situation...

Thanks,
Marcus
