Bug#616457: debian-policy: always write version of Debian in documentation at the beginning
Package: debian-policy
Severity: normal
Excuse me for my bad English :-)
It is like bad tradition now: many documentation do not contain information about
Debian version. It is very strange for me. How can be authors 100% sure
that their documentation is absolutely correct for all Debian versions,
from 1.1 or older to the current?
Examples - documents with no Debian version:
http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-reference/
http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/
http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-faq/ch-basic_defs.en.html
http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/securing-debian-howto/index.en.html
http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/menu.html/
http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/intro-i18n/
Documents where Debian version is not at the begin:
http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/maint-guide/ch-start.ru.html
http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-java-faq/index.html#contents
