Not much has changed (a few new pages, a dozen pages with
significant changes). Still, please, get the latest version
before submitting corrections.

People have often sent Section 1 man pages, and so far
I have rejected those - they belong in the distribution
of the respective programs. Of course I still feel like that,
but probably I'll include some Section 1 pages in coming
releases, for cases where the official distribution does
not provide them.  For example, many people complained
about the lack of man pages for diff and cmp, and since GNU
does not (want to?) provide these, I'll be happy to include
such pages if anybody submits them.
