Subject: add-change-log-entry-other-window and multi-author changelog entries
Date: Tue, 10 May 2011 15:40:46 -0400

Package: emacs
Severity: minor
Version: 23.3

With a multi-author ChangeLog entry, eg:

2011-05-10  Me  <me <at> mine>
	    You <you <at> yours>

add-change-log-entry-other-window does the wrong thing if I call it on
the same day to add another change. It starts adding a new entry in the
middle of the author names, ie:

2011-05-10  Me  <my <at> mine>

	* new-entry

	    You <you <at> yours>


Instead it should start a completely new entry (under the assumption
that the new change is mine alone and so should not be merged with the
previous entry).
