Subject: locale.5: drop tel/fax description
Date: Mon, 7 Mar 2016 13:52:51 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <56DD6B93.8070802@redhat.com> (raw)

Hi Michael,

glibc upstream recently deemed that the tel/fax fields are not useful
and dropped them from the few locales which had them defined. Do you
think we could/should drop the descriptions from the man page as well?
