`Hello' would be translated to `Olá' ou `Oi' (the latter being more
like `Hi'), except when answering the phone, in which case it would be
`Alô'.

`Aí, meu!' would be close enough in terms of usage, even though a
literal translation back to English would result in ``There, mine!''

Indeed.  I've been looking forward to this feature myself too, but the
latest version still wouldn't do it.  Given this push, I went ahead
and implemented it.  It doesn't seem to break other ChangeLog
processing, so I'm checking it in.  Now it will clean up plain-text
ChangeLog entries that start with a date (ISO or otherwise) and a
complete e-mail address.  The only unfortunate thing is that it will
guess the ChangeLog filename as being ChangeLog, without any directory
components, but I don't see how to make it better.

Oops, fixed.
