I'd accept both to avoid chicken and egg problems that may otherwise arise. We may need to do that in the stable branch anyway (though its obscure enough maybe not). Accepting both will allow older man pages to render correctly on current systems.

Deprecated comment for the old one + notice in src/UPDATING? Accept both until 16.0 release?

Alternatively, what if I MFC changing all the C24s that can MFC so we don't have this problem?

I'd add isoC2023 like you have and add a deprecated comment. I'd commit those changes here and the rest of the tree. then start on doing the vendor import to get the rest. I'd merge it to 14 after 14.3 is released (since it's a minor thing that doesn't change the rendered man pages and re@ dislikes churn that doesn't make things better). Catch me on irc/discord/etc and we can work out the logistics since there's a lot of details that matter and it's hard to catch them all on a github pull request. They are documented in the handbook, but it can be a little confusing in places (which I'd love to see improved, but I've read it so many times I'm blind to it, though I also know it's confusing).

pulled the PR. The merge looks OK. It looks to be the proper subtree merge. |
Switch all instances of the -isoC-2024 macro to -isoC-2023 selected by upstream. Keep -isoC-2024 defined, but deprecated, for backwards compat. MFC after: 3 days (I will resolve merge conflicts with cdefs)
Interesting changes: + correct legacy mandoc date typo, reported on our very own bugzilla + improve libmandoc manual + strengthen recommendations to omit macros from title lines in mdoc(7) + improve html5 compliance in html output + improve RFC linking in markdown output + libmandoc and mdoc manuals have been improved + support arithmetic operations in tbl(7) column widths for DocBook + define the St -isoC-2023 macro for referencing the C23 spec

This is my first time attempting anything like this, so please be critical and nit. This has a prequel commit to switch all instances of our macros for the C23 standard to what upstream does so there is no conflict.
I tried to put a changelog summary in the annotated tag message, but I don't really understand that.
Many thanks to @erikarn, @bapt , @brooksdavis
