2012-01-12Documentation: Update stable addressJoe Perches
commit 2eb7f204db51969ea558802a6601d79c2fb273b9 upstream. The Japanese/Korean/Chinese versions still need updating. Also, the stable kernel 2.6.x.y descriptions are out of date and should be updated as well. Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2011-03-25docs: update the development process documentJonathan Corbet
Here's a set of changes updating Documentation/development-process. I have update kernel releases and relevant statistics, added information for a couple of tools, zapped some trailing white space, and generally tried to make it more closely match the current state of affairs. [Typo fixes from Joe Perches and Nicolas Kaiser incorporated] Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Acked-by: Greg KH <greg@kroah.com> Cc: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net>
2009-06-04docs: Encourage better changelogs in the development process documentJonathan Corbet
Add a couple of paragraphs to the "patch formatting" section on how patches should be described. This text is shamelessly cribbed from suggestions posted by Rusty Russell. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
