Both tell users that the document is incomplete and partly inconsistent before all patches from the series got applied. It also points out the new text is dual-licensed under GPLv2+ and CC-BY 4.0. The latter is better for documentation in general. It's also more liberal, which is a nice-to-have for a document like this, as that makes it possible for websites and books to republish it or build upon it. The second marker separates old and new text, which makes diffs a lot more readable. It's also there for licensing reasons, to make is obvious that all old text got removed in the end. Then a proper SPDX license tag will get added as well. Signed-off-by: Thorsten Leemhuis --- = RFC = Let me know if you think dual-licensing was a bad idea or if CC-BY-4.0 is a bad choice here. --- Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-bugs.rst | 13 +++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 13 insertions(+) diff --git a/Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-bugs.rst b/Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-bugs.rst index 42481ea7b41d..4bbb9132782b 100644 --- a/Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-bugs.rst +++ b/Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-bugs.rst @@ -3,6 +3,19 @@ Reporting bugs ++++++++++++++ +.. ############################################################################ +..
