| Day 1 of Rostock hackathon: proper handling of quotations in tab-separated |
Release consisting of the results from the m2k10 hackathon and up-merge from |
| column lists, finished patching of SYNOPSIS breaking (1.9.25), fixed pre-comment |
OpenBSD. This requires a significant note of thanks to Ingo Schwarze (OpenBSD) |
| white-space stripping, added end-of-sentence spacing to black partial-implicit |
and Joerg Sonnenberger (NetBSD) for their hard work, and again to Joerg for |
| macros, relaxed column warnings, relaxed acceptence of bad standards arguments, |
hosting m2k10. Highlights (mostly cribbed from Ingo's m2k10 report) follow in |
| significant documentation of lists in <A HREF="mdoc.7.html">mdoc(7)</A>. |
