Subject: Documentation/HOWTO: info about interface changes should CC linux-api@vger
From: "Michael Kerrisk" <mtk.manpages@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
The "Documentation" section of this file mentions that when an interface
change is made, I should be CCed with info about the change (so that
man-pages can document it). Additionally request that this info be CCed
to the new linux-api@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx list.
