Oh, nice. Thanks.
Before I forget, here are sections of the kernel-handbook that do not
reflect this yet.
chapter-scope.sgml: §1.1 "Scope"
replace "Lenny release of Debian (version 5.0)", by "Wheezy
release of Debian (version 7.0)"
chapter-common-tasks.sgml: §4.1 "Obtaining the Debian kernel source"
remove the paragraph starting with "In order to get the
Debian kernel source at a patchlevel <em>different</em> from
the one provided by the current linux-source-<var>version</var>
package".
in the next paragraph, remove "to achieve any patchlevel up to
<tt><em>N</em></tt> (e.g. patch level 8 for 2.6.18-8)".
chapter-packaging.sgml: §3.2 "Architecture-independent packages"
remove the phrase ", bringing the source to the desired
patchlevel".
the paragraph on kernel-patches/all/<var>version</var>/debian/series
probably needs to be rewritten.
remove the note starting "Note that there is currently a bug
in the script"
Since the online copy of the kernel handbook is often used by people
working with squeeze, this should probably be done as two patches ---
one to add a note to the relevant sections that this detail is
different between squeeze and wheezy, and another to remove the old
details once we no longer care about them.
