Hmm - what's missing here?  :>
Here's the filelog on the file in /systest/eic/gray
 >p4 filelog -l bs.txt
//depot/systest/eic/gray/products/bs.txt
... #20 change 760 edit on 2002/08/06 by patrickb at PatrickB (text)

        "another test edit"

        "another test edit"

etc. etc.

Notice the change descriptions?  "Another test edit"
That description (and change) does >NOT< show up in the filelog -i on 
the integration >to< side.
I repeat, the people who think this is the case are mistaken.  It only 
shows the integrated >changelists< -
which will contain the integrations only - not the "changelists for the 
edits that were integrated"
