@stapelberg one way to speed the commit to asciidoc is for you to test it with all backends and say it works.
Maybe https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor provides that? That project seems to be much more active.
@rumpelsepp an open source project is only active if people are active, the change is awaiting somebody testing it.
@rumpelsepp : the idea behind this is also to be able to have the Debian packages that use asciidoc to generate their doc to be able to build in a reproducible way after that. So make everybody move to something else don't seem like the best solution ever! ;)
I don't understand these strange comments here. Asciidoctor is just a dropin replacement that would compile the existing sources to the same results; and it provides a reproducible command line switch. I just have posted a pointer that might be useful. You can use it or not; and it is archived for the future if someone else wants to step up. That is also how open source works. Please stop fooling around.
This PR has been merged now.
Once https://github.com/asciidoc/asciidoc/pull/9 is merged and included in a released version, we should set
-a footer-style=revdate
to have our documentation built reproducibly.
