Excellent!

I have one favour to ask of you :-)

Would you mind documenting your experience in the glibc wiki? I'd like
to use it as a template process for helping other developers
write/enhance linux man-pages when they contribute to glibc. Anything
you write down would be a start to helping others with a similar
process e.g. checked out man-pages, found template, copied it, edited
it like so, posted patch to X, reviewed it, had someone else check it
in, took 2 weeks to get done, etc etc etc.

Cheers,
Carlos.
