I was not sure if PMS was the right place. It may be better suited in the |
| 9 |
devmanual. Though both seem to say the same thing, just more verbose in |
| 10 |
devmanual than than PMS. |

The devmanual has the same info as in the PMS including on the suffix |

Which is why I assumed PMS was the proper place. They seem to be the same at |
