Hi Andrew,
Unfortunately, Linux Foundation funding for my work on man-pages/testing/doc under the auspices of the LF documentation fellowship ran out a
short while ago (after earlier attempts to seek funding, only Google stepped forward with a bit of further funding for the position), so the patch below acknowledges something closer to reality.
There will (probably very) soon be a further downgrade from "Maintained" to "Odd Fixes" or "Orphan", unless some funding miracle occurs. So, if anyone is looking to become man-pages maintainer, there may soon be an opening (okay, don't trample me in the rush ;-).)
Cheers,
Michael
