Actually, I think I'd rather have the old changelogs in the source 
package and leave it at that, and just include the current changelog in 
the binaries.

I wouldn't have anything against renaming the current changelog to 
ChangeLog.BETA or something and starting a new one for the 1.0 series.

Or, I suppose worst case (if the changelog is dropped completely), and I 
don't feel like generating the log myself, I could install the ANNOUNCE 
file as the upstream changelog...
