From ffa81c22a3ac0fb75ad9bf2b1c3cdbf9eafa0bc9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexandre Oliva Date: Mon, 7 May 2018 01:37:37 -0300 Subject: Revert: 2018-04-30 Raymond Nicholson * manual/startup.texi (Aborting a Program): Remove inappropriate joke. This complies with the decision of the project leader and primary and ultimate maintainer, who partially delegated maintainership to myself and others under certain constraints. This is also in line with the community-agreed procedures. It is obvious that we didn't have consensus on a decision to install that patch, since both sides are still arguing over it. As for the decision to reverse the deletion, if we even need one to counter a move that did not have consensus, although nobody else offered to install the reversal and restore the status prior to the fait accompli, and some explicitly refused to do so themselves, nobody objected when I offered to do so. Therefore, by the same reasoning that led to the mistaken installation of the patch, and after a much longer wait for objections, I understand there is consensus on my reverting it. --- manual/startup.texi | 8 ++++++++ 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+) (limited to 'manual') diff --git a/manual/startup.texi b/manual/startup.texi index 21c48cd..7395d32 100644 --- a/manual/startup.texi +++ b/manual/startup.texi @@ -1005,6 +1005,14 @@ This function actually terminates the process by raising a intercept this signal; see @ref{Signal Handling}. @end deftypefun +@c Put in by rms.
