[packagers] Errata

All,
 
I am not sure this is the right place to suggest this, and I tried to find this information on the rpmforge website but I found nothing.
 
RedHat maintains errata on all these packages
https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/rhel-server-errata.html
 
We have a procedure in place where we run yum check-update every night on our systems. When packages requiring updates appear, we consult the RedHat errata and decide if the need is great to install the packages. (We almost always decide yes but that is not the point)
 
The important part about the errata is that I find it helpful to know why the package is being updated. The update could be for security, features, or bugs. 
 
Does any similar change log exist for rpmforge? Developer notes etc?
 
Thank you,
Edward
