Caveat: I haven't made a commit in a few months, so apply due weight to my opinion.

Personally I appreciate the amount of spit and polish Bjarni is willing to apply to the groff man pages. True, there are things he could do to package his concerns more palatably, like not using the structured output of what I assume is a personal style checker as the primary body of his report, and by not having far and away the groff development community's longest .signature file. The former is best recast for reading by mere English-speaking humans who communicate through conversation, since we do not have an AI agent to process the bug backlog. The latter I regard as a personal idiosyncrasy. > Please go away. > > The point of my reply to this ticket was that wading through such > tickets to find whether anything of value is hidden in them is not > worth the time and effort it requires.

When I draw my "git push" sword again I will be willing to triage the reports he files. On balance, I find his reports a benefit to the project, even if things don't always turn out his way (or mine). -- Regards, Branden
