It's been a while, I know. As part of SUSE's Hack Week 21, I decided to exhume this old patch series of yours which has been in the back of my mind for the last 4 years. I could never get over the idea that all the work we both put into it would go to waste. The project's page is here: https://hackweek.opensuse.org/21/projects/update-quilts-manual-page What I've done so far: * Rebase the whole series on top of the current version of quilt's manual page. There were lots of context changes due to additions and fixes that were made to the manual page over the last 4 years. * Update individual patches to propagate the changes to the added paragraphs, so that the changes are consistent and complete for the current version of the manual page. Now I'm reaching the next step of the process, which is to go through my own review and apply the suggested corrections where applicable. Unfortunately, I see that there were a lot of questions of mine which were left unanswered. As I do not have your deep knowledge of the roff language, macros and good practices, I don't feel good enforcing my views. On the other hand, there are a few changes you proposed which clearly did not make sense or were confusing, so it also does not feel right to apply your patches without cleaning them up first. Therefore, if you are still around, still have some interest in the project, and have a few spare cycles you could allocate for this task, I would really appreciate if you could go through the questions I asked back then, and enlighten me.
