-ircd-hybrid documentation guidelines
-
-1. When a major change in the code affects users, it MUST be documented
-in whats-new and all other appropriate locations.
-
-2. When something affects the configuration file, and it's compatibility
-with previous versions, it MUST be documented in reference.conf and in a
-proposed new document README.NOW. This is VERY important during the beta
-phase to help anyone who mans the "help desk".
-
-3. All documentation must properly fit in an 80 character wide terminal.
-SGML and other "professional" documentation systems are good for some
-projects, but hybrid is intended to be used on minimal UNIX installations
-where any extra binary is a security risk. Text only docs, sized to fit
-properly in an 80 character wide console, are what admins expect, and that's
-what they should get.
-
-4. All documentation must be spell checked before a release or a beta.
-'ispell' (using either the US or British dictionary) is probably the
-easiest way to spell check the documentation. 'ispell -a' at the command
-line will allow you to check individual words as you are editing.
-
-5. When a document is over approximately 5 pages long, it should be split
-into sections to facilitate users reading them.
-
-6. All docs (except docs specifically describing code) should be written
-in a way that all users of the software (not just programmers) will be able
-to easily understand.
-
-7. Don't make documentation a chore. If it's done while coding, or shortly
-after, it usually is more accurate and the documentation tasks don't get
-pushed back and pile up.
-
-8. Don't forget to include a CVS Id.
