Description Sergei Kolobov 2002-11-11 15:00:08 UTC
List of Additional Contributors is supposed to be sorted by first name.
Unfortunately, the sort order is broken in a few places.

Fix: This first of three patches to fix the sort order.

Patch 1 fixes line wrapping only:
- wrap lines exceeding 80 columns
- unwrap lines that could fit in 80 columns

Hum.  It's very difficult to find the unsorted entries in the
submitted patch.  I'd happily commit any change that fixes the sort
order, but please don't mix whitespace changes (i.e. wrapping) with
content changes.

Giorgos,

That is exactly why I have splitted the patch into 3 PRs (please note
"part 1 of 3" in the synopsis field).

docs/45213: whitespace only - wrapping/unwrapping
docs/45214: content #1 - swapping last name/first name where needed
docs/45215: content #2 - re-sort

Hope this helps ;-)

Sergei

Ah, pardon me.  I do apologise.  I didn't notice it was split in 3
different PRs, and thought that somehow you had submitted a single
patch for all 3 changes!  It looks good, but I don't think we can fit
all the SGML sources in less than 80 columns so I'm not sure the first
patch is a definite must...

No problem.

I was just trying to make it consistent throughout the article -
most of the items that exceeded 80 columns were wrapped, so I added
wrapping for few items that weren't, and unwrapped those that could be
fit in 80 columns.

I've converted all entries to the format which was only used by entries that 
were too long.  Thanks for the patch which inspired this change!
