The lists of authors in each part has been continually out of date and
incomplete. There are multiple examples, here are a few:
* In September 2005, John Sullivan made improvements and was not placed on
the Authors lists until I did so in a March 2014 commit.
* In March 2014, Martin Michlmayr submitted many patches, but was not
placed on the Authors lists until I did so in an April 2014 commit.
There is no easy way to keep these Authors lists current, and they aren't
necessary under CC-BY-SA-4.0 anyway, so I herein remove the Authors lists.
Additionally, previous commit added "published sources" in each part, which
is more static and easier to keep up to date and provides similar
information.
References and details regarding these published works from which some
text was incorporated already appeared in the commit logs in great
detail. The information, already fully available in the Guide's Git
logs in full compliance with CC-BY-SA-4.0 §3(a)(1-2), now appears in
summary form additionally in the compiled PDF/HTML/Postscript output.
This paragraph was from text brought through from another document, and
as such, while this section was built "around it", the text itself was
stylistically different and otherwise problematic. This change brings
it into form with the rest of the document.
Merge requested proposed by @mlinksva has been changed slightly by
@bkuhn because there were changes to the README.md file since the
merge request was submitted that made some of the changes moot.
@keynote2k was the first to point out that the in-page anchor links in
the Guide failed to function properly, due to Bootstrap's fixed navbar.
This mixed solution of CSS and Javascript is the best solution I've been
able to come up with for the problem. The CSS solution is obviously
preferable, and is used herein for those anchor id attributes in the
Guide that have no href of their own.
Due to problems with using a pure CSS solution where the anchor includes
both an href and a id attribute. The Javascript solution is specific
for those cases. I took care not to have them both happen at once, as
they would undoubtedly conflict.
I did a inordinate amount of research about this issue. Bootstrap's own
page about the fixed navbar:
http://getbootstrap.com/examples/navbar-fixed-top/
doesn't discuss this issue at all, but there is a bug in Booststrap's
bugtracker:
https://github.com/twitter/bootstrap/issues/1768
which discusses the issue. (However, I don't understand why that bug is
closed, since none of the solutions I implement herein truly solve it).
The most useful page I found regarding this issue is this one:
http://nicolasgallagher.com/jump-links-and-viewport-positioning/demo
which offers several pure CCS solutions (each with drawbacks and
advantages). Unfortunately, none of those solutions consider the
question of anchor links that have both href and id attributes, and none
of them work properly in that situation.
In the HTML rendered versions of the guide, the quoted text, using the
previous CSS herein include, seemed to prominent.
Hopefully, this change will resolve that issue.
