An XML-based ChangeLog adds semantic meaning, making it much more useful.  
It's not too difficult for (most ;-) humans to make sense of our current 
ChangeLogs, but tools are always going to be limited in accuracy and 
capability.

There's also the added side-effect that it would make validating the ChangeLog 
very straight forward through a simple XML Schema.

Best regards,
Stu
