In changes.txt, I try to provide a brief one or two line description
of every (non-cosmetic) change I make.  In that sense it reflects the
changes.

266 is the repository version number and changes when the repository
changes.  For example, if I were to create a new branch of slrn in the
repository, its version number would change even though the trunk
(where the main line of development takes place) did not change.
