Grammar, spelling in LSB 1.1.0 Ch. 16
If this is not the correct forum for these suggestions, please forgive me
and let me know where I can direct them.
I noticed some errors in English usage which I would like to point out. In
Chapter 16, under "User & Group Names":
Original text (occurs twice):
This specification makes no attempt to numerically assign uid or gid numbers.
This is redundant. My suggestion would be:
This specification makes no attempt to assign uid or gid numbers.
Original text:
If the username exists on a system, then they should be in the suggested
corresponding group.
This is a mix of singular and plural. My suggestion would be:
If the username exists on a system, then that user should be in the
suggested corresponding group.
In Chapter 16, under "UID Ranges":
Original text:
The system UIDs from 100 to 499 should be reserved for dynamically
allocation by system administrators...
"dynamically" is an adverb. My suggestion:
The system UIDs from 100 to 499 should be reserved for dynamic allocation
by system administrators...
Just trying to improve the product :-)
