Our legal department has checked GPL, MPL, Apache, Artistic, and a few
other common licenses, and said that it was okay to ship binaries
without changelogs (at all -- and now we at least ship the topmost
bits of it).

Above clause doesn't apply to binaries, but to the source code
apparently.

Thanks,

Martin
