From 4f3b19ca41fbe572e3d44caf516c215b286fe2a6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "J. Bruce Fields" Date: Mon, 24 Sep 2007 18:52:09 -0400 Subject: Documentation: move mandatory locking documentation to filesystems/ Shouldn't this mandatory-locking documentation be in the Documentation/filesystems directory? Give it a more descriptive name while we're at it, and update 00-INDEX with a more inclusive description of Documentation/filesystems (which has already talked about more than just individual filesystems).
