| Summary | 0001370: Where change history starts | ||||
| Description | XRAT B.1.1 says:The CHANGE HISTORY section for each entry details the technical changes that have been made to that entry from Issue 5. Changes between earlier versions of the base document and Issue 5 are not included. and C.1.1 says: The CHANGE HISTORY section for each utility describes technical changes made to that utility from Issue 5. Changes between earlier versions of the base document and Issue 5 are not included. These statements are not actually true. The change history starts with an "Issue 5" subheading, but changes listed under that subheading give the changes made in Issue 5, not the changes from Issue 5. So the changes between Issue 4 Version 2 and Issue 5 are included, contrary to what the second sentence of each of those paragraphs says. However, rather than fixing this text, perhaps what we should do is make it true. I.e. remove change history before the "Issue 6" subheading. Looking back at how much change history was included in old versions: If we don't remove "Issue 5" in SUSv5, it will have 4 headings which is more than any previous version. Also, since Issue 6 was the POSIX.1/SUS merge, it seems like a good place to start the change history. | ||||
| Desired Action | On each header, function, built-in utility, and utility page that has an "Issue 5" subheading under CHANGE HISTORY, delete from that heading down to (but not including) the next subheading. | ||||
