* Makefile.am, binaries.t, buildc.t, intro.t, nextstep.t, require.t,
sample.t, started.texi: General improvements and merge enough Ada
information to justify dropping the Ada specific manual. There is
likely still Ada specific information to merge though.
* SUPPORT, LICENSE: New files.
* Numerous files touched as part of merging the 4.5 branch
onto the mainline development trunk and ensuring that the
script that cuts snapshots and releases works on the documentation.
<corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de> which:
* should fix the building rtemsdoc outside of the sourcetree with
relative srcdir issue
* adds --enable-papersize=[letter|a4|]
which splits the current monolithic specs files into a sequence of
subparts. These can be concatenated togather to make a the whole .spec
file. This cleans up the maintenance problem of having "all languages"
and a "C/C++ only" gccnewlib spec files. Plus it should make it easier
to produce variants like the gdb-m68k-bdm which require special hackery. :)
Ralf's comments:
It addresses the way *.spec.in get composed inside of the source
tree.
Changes:
* Each spec.in is broken into several files (*.add), one *.add file
per sub-package.
* Each Makefile.am composes spec.ins from the *.add files
* Removal of redundant automake support files.
* Default value for BuildRoot changed to /tmp/<spec-file-name>
* %clean stage added to *specs
Advantages (IMHO).
* The *.add files are easier to adminstrate and more flexible in
comparison to the former *.specs.ins.
* gccnewlib_c_only.spec.in now is composed from the same sources as
gccnewlib.spec.in (less errors)
* If using the default BuildRoot --clean now deletes all files that
were generated while building.
Notes:
* rtems.spec.in has not yet been adapted to the scheme used for the
other *spec.ins
* Except for cosmetical changes the internals of the *.spec files
should not have changed.

Ralf's comments follow:
Changes:
* Enhanced versioning:
- Addition of automake's version.texi support
- Replacement of rtemsdoc's former versioning support by automake's
versioning support (Abandoning RTEMS-UPDATE-* etc.)
- Abandoning setup.texi.in
- Add EDITION to each documents Makefile.am
- version.texi support in project.am
- Addition of maintainer mode (currently only used to prevent incorrectly
updating timestamps when users touch automake's version.texi timestamp
files (stamp-vti)).
* Fixing info dir support
- Use texinfo's @dircategory and @direntry instead of infos *-DIR-ENTRY
- $(infodir)/dir is now correctly set up
* Avoid using temporary files
- Pipe texts through REPLACE2 into BMENU2 instead of using temporary files.
- Abandon using bmenu in favor of bmenu2 (bmenu could be removed now)
* Prepare Makefile.ams for building in a separate buildtree
- prefix files with $(srcdir) in Makefile.am for files which must be
generated inside of the source tree
Notes:
* rtemsdoc can not yet be build in a separate source-tree, but we
are very close to it.
* You as the maintainer of this package now should always use
--enable-maintainer-mode to configure rtemsdoc.
