This patch has the same problems as the previous one I replied to:

- The above header information should not be in the changelog.  Please
  try sending patches just to yourself until you can verify that the
  formatting is correct.

- Two spaces after a period is not an error in need of correction.
  Since that is the only thing this patch is changing, I have to say
  that it really is not needed at all.

Thanks,

jon
