Removing the link was a good idea. But changing the version number was just cosmetics, and actually a lie: it doesn't magically make the document describe "0.9.8 or greater". I find this actually more frustrating. From an old date/version number I can at least see *why* the contents are all wrong. ;-) > At the company where I work as an IT guy if we update someone's work we add > ourselves as the author so that people can see who are the authors and ask > questions about the document to the new author also. I would still not call that "author". Just editor. And I know this only as adding a copyright line with appropriate date, and mostly in source code. This isn't normally done in fgfs documents AFAIK. There's ususally only one -- the real -- author named in the documents. All fgfs developers that edit the file can be found in the cvs log and are of no interest to the reader. m. -- "Faust", New Author: Melchior FRANZ (Former Author: Johann W. von GOETHE :-) _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [email protected] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
