That way we can post complete lists of features implemented in a version release. That way we get the best of both worlds, a clean path forward and a pretty picture of where we've been. Thoughts?

+1 to change logs.

that was my initial thought when i read the first email

maybe something like this

http://backbonejs.org/#changelog
