Not something we maintain. Documents in /proj/ belong to that particular project. In this case, to the Embedded project. Reassigning.

Comment 3 Nelson 2008-08-12 14:41:21 UTC

I know, this was assigned by bug-wranglers. Please reassign to Embedded project since I don't have permissions.

Comment 4 Nelson 2008-08-12 14:43:42 UTC

sorry never mind, didn't refresh

yes, I assigned the bug by mistake to the doc team. My bad. I'm sorry.

Many projects specifically request that "diffs" be submitted in the unified 
format. Gentoo is one of those. Please reattach any diff's/patches using the 
unified diff format. See (-u)

(sorry, never used cvs, svn does that by default)
