Subject: [RFC PATCH v1 26/26] docs: reporting-bugs: add SPDX tag and license hint, remove markers
Date: Thu,  1 Oct 2020 10:50:37 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <a755240762dd07bb48cf3e561b1e6cfa894f9178.1601541165.git.linux@leemhuis.info> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1601541165.git.linux@leemhuis.info>

Remove the last leftovers from the old text. Also delete the temporary
markers added for the rewrite of this document. Add a SPDX tag with the
new license now that the rewrite is complete. Add a license hint whom to
attribute when distributing the text under CC-BY 4.0.
