Ah, totally different story.

For what it's worth, good luck. I remember this issue popping up in the
P5P a couple of times before, and Murray Nesbitt and I have both addressed
individual authors about it. However, I'll reassert, to us it's as
important that authors write documentation in an orderly manner as it is
that they write it at all, otherwise it's hard to find later and can get
overlooked (and may as well not exist).

I have seen this improve over the past couple of years, but there are
still a couple of stubborn ones out there. Aldo and Dave Roth are
mentionable. (I do that on purpose in an ongoing effort to try to hint
them [strongly] into standards compliance, not to say that either aren't
decent programmers.)
