Gidday
I've released man-pages-3.10.
This release is now available for download at:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/docs/man-pages or ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/docs/man-pages
(The very latest version of man-pages is always available via git, at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/docs/man-pages/man-pages.git .)
The online changelog is available at http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/changelog.html (blogged at http://linux-man-pages.blogspot.com/2008/10/man-pages-311-is-released.html) and the current version of the pages is browsable at http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/
An abridged version of the changes in this release that may be of particular interest to readers of this list is provided below.
Cheers,
Michael
