Subject: [Bug 215735] New: uri.7: DESCRIPTION: Usage: news: Mention to obsolete IETF RFC 1036
Date: Thu, 24 Mar 2022 11:43:03 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <bug-215735-11311@https.bugzilla.kernel.org/> (raw)

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215735

            Bug ID: 215735
           Summary: uri.7: DESCRIPTION: Usage: news: Mention to obsolete
                    IETF RFC 1036
           Product: Documentation
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: man-pages
          Assignee: documentation_man-pages@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
          Reporter: alx.manpages@gmail.com
        Regression: No

uri(7)::DESCRIPTION::Usage::news reads as:

```
       news - Newsgroup or News message

       news:newsgroup-name
       news:message-id

       A newsgroup-name is a period-delimited hierarchical name,
       such as "comp.infosystems.www.misc".  If <newsgroup-name>
       is "*" (as in <news:*>), it is  used  to  refer  to  "all
       available     news     groups".      An     example    is
       <news:comp.lang.ada>.

       A  message-id  corresponds  to  the  Message-ID  of  IETF
       RFC 1036,  <http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1036.txt>  without
       the  enclosing  "<"  and   ">";   it   takes   the   form
       unique@full_domain_name.   A  message  identifier  may be
       distinguished from a news group name by the  presence  of
       the "@" character.
```

It refers to an obsolete RFC[1].  We should update the info there.
