References to functions should be noted like function() with the
trailing parens. The POD converters know how to format these sorts of
references appropriately. References to other sections in the same page
- should be given as L<SECTION>.
+ should be given as L<SECTION>. Man pages for all other AFS commands or
+ file formats referenced in the page should be listed in the SYNOPSIS.
+ List each reference on its own line for easier addition of other
+ references later, but don't put blank lines between them. Don't forget
+ the commas at the end of each line but the last.
Command and output examples should be indented three spaces. Commands
entered by the user should be given on a line beginning with %. If the

* fs sysname documentation needs to include the possibility of setting
multiple sysnames and the resulting behavior.
- * The afsd man page is horribly out of date. It doesn't explain
- dynroot, many options are missing, and some of the options described
- are no longer valid. It also still assumes that -settime is the
- default and says that the system must be rebooted after shutdown,
- which isn't the case at least on Linux.

* bos listkeys and the KeyFile man page assume that you're using the
kaserver.
* Provide a way to substitute the correct paths into the HTML output
from Autoconf results.
+ * Currently, the man pages are built by regen.sh, which is somewhat
+ annoying since it takes a long time. Figure out how better to do this
+ during the release process so that end users don't have to have
+ pod2man.
+
+ * Review the sections used for all man pages against what directories
+ the commands are installed into. (In some cases, it may be better to
+ change the directory than the section of the man page.)

If you notice other problems, please send them to the openafs-doc list
even if you don't have time to fix them. Someone else might, and we
want to track all of the issues.
