Subject: [Bug 68861] New: Man page strftime Confusingly Refers to Weekday Rather than Day of Week
Date: Thu, 16 Jan 2014 23:09:09 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <bug-68861-11311@https.bugzilla.kernel.org/> (raw)
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=68861
Bug ID: 68861
Summary: Man page strftime Confusingly Refers to Weekday Rather
than Day of Week
Product: Documentation
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: low
Priority: P1
Component: man-pages
Assignee: documentation_man-pages-ztI5WcYan/vQLgFONoPN62D2FQJk+8+b@public.gmane.org
Reporter: bedens-lndS8KVcD7rQT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org
Regression: No
In several parts of the strftime page there are references to weekday which in
several human cultures / locales specifies the set of the days of the week that
are distinct from the set that represent the weekend.
To mitigate confusion, we propose that the man page text be modified so that
the "weekday" text is changed to "day of week".
