Hi,

There are many changes in POSIX:2024 that can have an impact on Gnulib;
it is useful to keep track of which changes have been dealt with and which
are still open.

Also, we are several people who can contribute at any time. Therefore it
is useful to avoid duplicate work, that would only result in
  - frustration,
  - the feeling of time pressure (to complete work soon after begun).

Therefore I've committed in the maint-tools/ repository two files, to be
used as TODO lists:
  - posix-2024-doc.TODO    for documentation
  - posix-2024-impl.TODO   for implementation

*PLEASE* when you start working on one of these items, add
  WIP <yourname>
in the first column, and
  DONE
when you are done with it. This should hopefully avoid duplicate work,
without being too onerous.

(The alternative would be to send a mail to the mailing list "I am
starting to work on topic xyz", but that is, IMO, not a proper use of
a mailing list.)

Bruno
