Hi Mike,

Sorry, no. :-(

Directly yes.  Of course others can always ask to have changes made.

My suggestion - post your patchess to this list as if they were a
change to the sources.  If approved - or no-one objects - apply them
to the sourceware repository and ask the FSF webmasters to clone the
change on their copy of the page.

>>> it's not in CVS as that hasn't been updated since 2017 & binutils-2.29. sourceware.org:/cvs/binutils/htdocs

I stand corrected.

But that is definitely the old version of the docs, before the switch
from cvs to git.
