@amicic,

I have updated the -Xmint/-Xmaxt and -Xminf/-Xmaxf related topics based on the modification done for the balanced GC policy (#835). Could you please review the same and let me know if any changes have to be done.

Please note that the content that was pending clarification has not been included or modified (#835 (comment)).

The What's new in Version 0.30.0 was tidied up and does not require a review since no new content has been added.

You can control the size of the LOA by using the [`-Xloainitial`, `-Xloaminimum`, and `-Xloamaximum`](xloaminimum.md) command line options. If the LOA is not used, the garbage collector contracts the LOA after a few cycles, down to the value of `-Xloaminimum`. You can also specify [`-Xnoloa`](xloa.md) to prevent an LOA being created.

An SOA and LOA are used by the OpenJ9 GC policies: `gencon`, `optavgpause` and `optthruput`. For the `gencon` policy, the LOA and SOA are contained within the tenure area, which is designated for ageing objects. For more information about policies, see [Garbage collection policies](gc.md).

This should be A instead of An, but I won't hold up the merge for this.
