It depends if they really want to have the same thing we do. I.e. don't they want to rephrase the document a bit? If so, there is no point of linking the document at all. If no, we can create a separate document from that in the kernel so that we allow people to link that at some fixed version using git commit SHA. This can be done easily doing a link to git.kernel.org. The link to git.kernel.org might seem to be long. One can create a dynamic helper on some web like signed-off-by.cgi?id=SHA and it will return that document in that version. (It will redirect basically.) regards, -- js suse labs -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
