FWIW, I made an attempt to update this document a few years back and concluded that it was pretty much hopeless. What is there is ancient...what do you replace it with? There is a vast amount of content out there that will go obsolete just as quickly. I'm certainly not going to stand in the way of anybody who wants to update and maintain this document, though; I'd love to be proven wrong on its value. > By the way, Jon, I read in kernel-docs.rst, regarding LWN.net: > > ":Description: The title says it all.

Well, we do still put out an edition every Thursday, so it's not entirely wrong... Thanks, jon
