Refer consistently to software versions. In most cases, it is done as <software> <version>. In the case of Linux and glibc, use the project name, instead of other terms such as 'kernel' or 'library'. I found the uses of inconsistent language with the following: $ find man* -type f \ | xargs grep -i '\(since\|before\|after\|until\|to\|from\|in\|between\|version\|with\) \(kernel\|version\|2\.\|3\.\|4\.\|5\.\)' \ | sort However, I might have missed some cases. Anyway, 99% consistency is pretty good consistency. We'll fix the remaining cases as we see them. Signed-off-by: Alejandro Colomar <alx@kernel.org>
