Subject: [PATCH] Documentation: update top level 00-INDEX file with new additions
Date: Tue, 29 Jan 2013 10:34:00 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1359473640-4302-1-git-send-email-paul.gortmaker@windriver.com> (raw)

It seems there are about 80 new, but undocumented addtions at
the top level Documentation directory.  This fixes up the top
level 00-INDEX by adding new entries and deleting a couple orphans.
Some subdirs could probably still use a check/cleanup too though.

 they contain. If you add a documentation file, please list it here in
 alphabetical order as well, or risk being hunted down like a rabid dog.
