Global changes
--------------
+- Use correct letter case in manual page titles, instead of uppercase.
+
+- Use \" t comments when appropriate (Lintian needs this).
+
+- SYNOPSIS:
+
+ - Add _Nullable for functions that receive NULL as a meaningful
+ input.
+
+ - Use VLA syntax to clarify the meaning of size parameters, rather
+ than hiding it in possibly-confusing text. This syntax is not
+ accepted by any compilers, though.
+
+ - Use [[noreturn]] instead of noreturn, which will be deprecated
+ soon.
+
+- Repository documentation:
+
+ - Added significant documentation about the repository and the
+ project in the root of the repository in different files.
+ Starting from the README, anyone passing by should be able to
+ understand how the project works and be directed to other
+ documentation files. These files also document the release
+ process.
+
+ - Michael has been busy lately, and he is no longer maintaining
+ the project. The in-repository documentation mentioned above has
+ been updated to reflect that.
+
Changes to individual pages
---------------------------
+copy_file_range.2
+ Fix wrong kernel version information
+
+process_madvise.2
+ Fix capability and ptrace requirements

beyond what this changelog covers. To learn more about changes applied
to individual pages, use git(1).
