Description Stephen Rasku 2000-12-02 21:52:42 UTC 
Since "shutdown -h" has been replaced with poweroff, there should be a
reference to poweroff in the "SEE ALSO" section of the shutdown man page.
Comment 1 Nalin Dahyabhai 2001-01-16 03:58:50 UTC 
Reassigning to SysVinit, which provides this man page.

It might make sense to co-ordinate this effort.
