>Description:
In /usr/src/UPDATING, almost at the very end of the file, there's the following sentence:

"This file contains a list, in reverse chronological order, of major
breakages in tracking -current.  Not all things will be listed here,
and it only starts on October 16, 2004.  Updating files can found in
previous releases if your system is older than this."

The last sentence seems quite broken. At least I haven't got a clue what it's supposed to mean.
>How-To-Repeat:
Read /usr/src/UPDATING!

 "If you need to see entries from the UPDATING file which are older than 
 2004/10/16, go get the UPDATING file from a previous &os; release, and it 
 will have a better chance of including what you're looking for."

 I seem to recall there was discussion of this on IRC around the time it 
 was sent in, though I don't have records of it handy.
 Anyway, here, have a more suitable wording in the form of a patch.
