PATCH 1/1 man-pages is supported
Andrew,
Could you please apply the following.
Starting last month, I reached a long-time goal: man-pages finally has a paid, full-time maintainer, thanks to a fellowship from the Linux Foundation. It's still a little unclear how long the LF money will last for the fellowship, but for the foreseeable future, I'll be working on:
* Properly documenting every new Linux kernel-userland (and glibc) API, and every API change, that is released into the mainline kernel, ideally before actual release. (That's the ideal, but there's a quite a backlog, so I'm not going to achieve the ideal immediately.)
* Testing new APIs, again ideally before they are released into the mainline kernel, and probably doing some light bug fixing while I'm at it (e.g., the recent utimensat() work).
* Design review of new APIs, which of course can only usefully be done before they are released into the mainline kernel.
* And of course accepting patches and dealing with bug reports for existing man pages.
Cheers,
Michael
