Hi Branden,

You suggested recently patching string(3) and splitting it into string.h(3head) 
and strings.h(3head) (well, the exact names are not suggested by you, but I 
guess what we should do).

I agree with that, as I already said, so please send a patch.

However, please hold on.  I'm writing several changes to string manual pages, 
while I'm also adding a new manual page, string_copy(7), which will cover the 
obvious, and will also result in rewriting most of the other related pages.  To 
not make your patch incompatible, I suggest that you wait.

Because of these important changes, I'm withdrawing of my recent message saying 
that I would release again soon.  Especially, since we concluded that the bug 
report that made me consider releasing again is not a man-pages bug, I see no 
urgency in releasing.  Everything goes back to my plan of a 2-year release 
schedule.  :-)

Cheers,

Alex
