Subject: bug#13502: 24.3.50; bad formatting in recent NEWS?
Date: Sat, 19 Jan 2013 14:47:15 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <D19BF0A1C22843179EE9A0D544BCFB1A@us.oracle.com> (raw)
The longest is this one (87 chars):
machine smtp.whatever.foo port 25 key "~/.my_smtp_tls.key" cert
"~/.my_smtp_tls.cert"
There are also entries whose first line (a sentence) does not end in a
period. And there are entries whose first line is not a sentence, and
is continued over subsequent lines.
All of these seem to contradict past NEWS formatting, but I don't know
where the rules for formatting NEWS are defined, so I cannot tell
whether they are strictly wrong or just unusual. The last one certainly
works against the use of Outline mode to some extent.
