I already mentioned I would do the docs if you checked in the patches. It
would be a simple
statement to say that K&R support used to exist but was removed as of 3.0.
As well, there
is a section on more documentation and you can state that docs used to have
multiple formats
supported, but no longer. Anyway, as I said, I will do the docs as part
of the 3.0 snapshot.
