--- Comment #4 from daniel.neuberger at gmail.com ---
Thanks for adding the patch.

Why was the decision made to create a new guide rather than just renaming or
updating the old guide?

Also, wouldn't it make more sense to start by documenting the spec file
syntax/"language" as part of the rpm-build rpm?  It seems like the problem is
that there's a tool, rpmbuild, that processes a syntax, spec files, that isn't
documented or standardized.

In my mind, a "guide" is high level documentation that is very nice to have,
but should be based on my low level documentation.  The low level documentation
for the tool, rpmbuild, exists, but we're missing the low level documentation
for what the tool processes, spec files.

Just some thoughts.  Thanks for the help.
