Hi

Could you add something saying what markup rules developers should
follow when writing NEWS items? It would also make this patch easier to
comment upon. As far as I can see there are 2 relatively small things:
start an item with a * and put commands in backticks. (Actually it might
also be worth saying how to get * and ` if you actually want them too.)

I like the output at the address you gave.

Thanks

Mark
