If that's the goal - to standardize - then I would expect that we move
all the documentation out of those files in one place.
Right now, the changes duplicate information that exists - and the new
information is often wrong. It points to place that do not exist or
where better places exist. ;(
I'm fine with the status quo - of using the two files that you mention.
Having contribution information is important,
Andreas
