“The 's' is sad”: 4-year-old submits Linux kernel doc patch (2014)

I've submitted many such small corrections to OpenBSD to help keep that standard high. No one will place those contributions on the same level as real development but I like that I've helped. And I know I appreciate it when even the documentation is kept at the same bar.

One of the reasons I fell in love with OpenBSD was the commitment to correctness throughout the entire system. This is a lot harder with Linux because they only control the kernel and not the entire distribution.

Please keep doing that. I'm still hesitant to contribute to tech@ with code and have yet to find a fixable issue in the man pages/FAQ in my own usage. But I do appreciate that the details are oh so right very often.
