Documentation/ currently has a mix of both formats and they both work,
but the guidelines linked above is the gold standard and what we should
aim for in new documents.

The "correct" format would thus be:

====
CVEs
====

..

Process
=======

..

At least this is my understanding; I'm happy to be corrected (and in
this case, we should also update the documentation).

Thanks for your other clarifications.
