Message-ID: <20071105170557.GT12045@stusta.de> Date: Mon, 5 Nov 2007 18:05:57 +0100 From: Adrian Bunk <bunk@...nel.org> To: jgarzik@...ox.com Cc: netdev@...r.kernel.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: [2.6 patch] remove Documentation/networking/pt.txt There's no no point in keeping documentation for a driver that was removed many years ago.
