man-pages-2.70 is released

[Michael Kerrisk]

Gidday,

Some news:

* man-pages now has an (irregularly updated) blog:

      http://linux-man-pages.blogspot.com/

* Since man-pages-2.69, each man page now includes a COLOPHON
  section at the end of the page which indicates the version of
  man-pages in which this page is released, and also contains a
  pointer to the man-pages web site.

Repeating some old news:

* man-pages now has a website:

      http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages

  The site includes HTML versions of the current set of man-pages.

* The list linux-man@vger.kernel.org has been created for
  the purpose of discussing Linux man page bugs, patches,
  and maintenance.  To subscribe, send a message to
  majordomo@vger.kernel.org, with the body:

        subscribe linux-man

Back to the news as usual...

I recently released man-pages-2.70.

This release is now available for download at:

    http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/docs/man-pages
    or ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/docs/man-pages

    (Note the s/manpages/man-pages/ in these paths;
    a symlink with the old path will exist for
    a limited time.)

Changes in this release consist primarily of formatting and consistency fixes.

Cheers,

Michael
(man-pages maintenance is supported by Google, as a Google engineer 20%
project.)
