Both tell users that the document is incomplete and partly inconsistent before all patches from the series got applied. It also points out the new text is dual-licensed under GPLv2+ and CC-BY 4.0. The latter is better for documentation in general. It's also more liberal, which is a nice-to-have for a document like this, as other that makes it possible for websites and books to republish it or build upon it. The second marker separates old and new text, which makes diffs a lot more readable. It's also there for licensing reasons, as it makes is obvious that all old text is gone in the end. Then a proper SPDX license tag will get added as well. Signed-off-by: Thorsten Leemhuis --- = RFC = Let me know if you think dual-licensing was a bad idea or if CC-BY-4.0 is a bad choice here. --- Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-bugs.rst | 13 +++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 13 insertions(+) diff --git a/Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-bugs.rst b/Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-bugs.rst index 42481ea7b41d..4bbb9132782b 100644 --- a/Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-bugs.rst +++ b/Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-bugs.rst @@ -3,6 +3,19 @@ Reporting bugs ++++++++++++++ +.. ############################################################################ +..
