I made the above suggestion to speed up on the changelog issue a bit. I
have no clue why you think that is a different matter.
I also pointed out my current blocker - you don't even care for
addressing that.

Instead of answering my questions, you start lamenting about a "git
tag". I again have no clue why you do that - I never talked about that.
I referenced your term "CVE tag" from one of your last emails.

Is it possible to answer my questions above, please. Without an
appropriate answer we are stuck.
