No, the full changelog is what I post to the lists (including kde-announce) 
and what ends up on the web, see e.g.
https://www.kde.org/announcements/kde-frameworks-5.8.0.php

Since we do monthly releases, the list isn't too big, IMHO.

Every bugfix (compared to the previous release, not for commits from the day 
before) can matter to users of the frameworks. Having them in the changelog is 
IMHO useful. So I agree, it's not "every commit", but it's not "major features 
only" either.
