relevantbits:<br /><br /><table border="1" summary=""><tbody><tr><td>3</td><td>remove insignificant
items</td><td>2.7k</td><td>1day</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>research and reword items</td><td>1k</td><td>5
days</td></tr></tbody></table><br/> Some sort of tagging to identify feature changes should drive down the time spent
onfiltering insignificant items. And the person doing the commit already has the context you are acquiring later as
"research"here. Would suggesting they try to write a short description at commit time drive it and the "reword" phase
timedown significantly? Can't say for sure, but I wanted to throw the idea out for consideration--particularly since
solvingit well ends up making some of this other derived data people would like to see a lot easier to generate too.<br
