prose; the leading bold word (`**Update**`, `**Creation**`,
`**Deprecation**`, etc.) is a convention, not a requirement.

Log entries are append-only: producers SHOULD add new dated entries rather
than editing or deleting past ones, so the log remains a faithful history. A
correction SHOULD be recorded as a new entry that supersedes the earlier
statement, not as a rewrite of it.
