Is that official policy? I don't see any mention of it in the docs.
Are you somehow suggesting that our website isn't official? Where did you
get that idea?
Website information can often be of a transient nature, with no history of
changes or even the existence of information. Documentation is a little more
permanent, and at least offers a record of agreement at a specific point in
time.
Well, there is cvs history. But I see your point. Doesn't make it any less
official, though, just transient.
There is plenty of valid information that is not in the docs. One might
just as well ask where did the policy come from that the docs are the
only authoritative source of information on policy. ;-)
