Hello list. Here is a first patch trying to update a little bit nfs-utils documentation. I'd like also to change the constant opposition of 'nfs' vs 'nfs4' filesystems in this man page, but I have no clue if the plan is to remove 'nfs4' filesystem completly, or to keep for compatibility purpose. In the first case, I'd just remove any occurence of it in the man page, in the second case, I'm less sure about what to do. Also, I really think NEWS and ChangeLOG files should be either dropped, or merged and updated. -- BOFH excuse #295: The Token fell out of the ring. Call us when you find it.
