Description
Help give maintainers and readers information on what has been changed/added/removed in the Packaging Guide by creating a monthly sectioned changelog. This would be similar to the existing News Page. Ideally, we would automate this.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the existing News Page and how changes to the Packaging Guide are currently presented. Define the monthly sections and the automation approach with maintainers; done means a documented, repeatable changelog process that reports what was changed, added, and removed.
