Not that an arguement needs started, or a dispute needs to arise, but
may I throw the following idea on the table for everyones evauluation:

No author listed, who would be contacted if this manual document became
out of date, who would fix it?  Who already knows about it?

Could we just dub Hiten, as the last person who worked with it, the
current author and maintainer of this document?  It would be good,
in my opinion of course, for users to have an idea of who to contact
if in fact this document needs changing.

Many times we get prs saying ``this needs changed'' and yet it either
sits for many days/weeks until someone has the time to investigate the
problem, or knowledge to apply a quick fix?

In closing, I guess that this is just a request to assign Hiten as the
author of this document, and maybe even list an (unknown origin) under
the authors section.

Is this idea feasable?
