Look at http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/portage/ where $Date: 2007/05/02 08:04:44 $ becomes "Updated May 2, 2007" Only handbooks would be affected, and only if there were mixed formats be= cause dates of handbooks are sorted first and the latest is formatted later. That would be easy to change, but I don't think there's any demand for th= at. > d) We don't bump date automatically because some changes (typo fixes > etc) aren't important enough to warrant that. Indeed, that's why we do not use $Date$ inside the tag. For insta= nce, if you fix a typo in a 2 year old file, you do not want to change the dat= e because 1) the content did not change 2) you did not check whether the document is still valid today. If that's not a problem for you, there's no problem with using $Date$, ju= st do not use $DATE$ :) Cheers, --=20 / Xavier Neys \_ Gentoo Documentation Project / /\ http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/ --------------enig71322E1E5371AAF469B98593 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.3 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGOai9bRzXDXoJCQIRAp4IAJ9uPw4sAJHivVmuU6AvtwUAAuPgDACgkFqv lO/+EiDIHALGura79t0BDWs= =htBQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig71322E1E5371AAF469B98593-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
