How the recent changes happened to allow USE flag descriptions in
metadata.xml (which I'm not taking any position on now) gave me an idea.
The Linux kernel requires that any needed documentation accompany all
changes requiring said documentation -- part of the source-code patch
must apply to the Documentation/ directory. Should we require that
before you commit any changes, you (or someone) write the documentation
for them and commit it or submit a patch at the same time?
To sum up: No undocumented changes.
Discuss.
Thanks,
Donnie
