I would like to do this if people think it useful. After Kris Kennaway's request for a "being a port maintainer" document, I looked through the porter's handbook for a while. Have a look at the table of contents - there are 20 or so chapters, some fairly broad like "Ports Security" and some are as narrow as "X11 fonts". I think it would be good to chop this down to maybe 8 or 10 chapters and reorganise things a bit more logically.

Remember, it > needs to be possible to objectively test them. 1) Perhaps a metric about how many 's there are in a file. If there are more then 10(?) then it might be worth looking into the document why it is quoted that much. Perhaps its right but perhaps the text should be reworded so that the need for quotes vanishes. 2) How is the style of the document? If the style is rather bad (like the layout of some of our current chapters) it might be that it means work in progress and needs looking after by some people to trace bugs and other faults. We can measure that by just looking into the document.

We can link back immediately upon recieving your reply and your site's link code html. http://www.8thd.net - Free Games - Arcade games, checkers, solitaires, trivia, sweepstakes, casinos. Something for everyone from novices to pros. I'd also like to ask if you'd be interested in adding 4,180+ free games to a new page or something on your site, maybe a small arcade branch. All you do is copy the HTML code from the pages we allow ( http://www.8thd.net/free_games_4_your_site.php ) and put your LAYOUT around it and upload it to your server. After that, you just link it from your other pages and the games arcade is on YOUR WEB DOMAIN and it links DIRECTLY to all 4,180+ free online games. The games are legally hosted by us and you don't have to worry about ANY fees or ANY bandwidth issues since we host them. If you have ANY questions at all, please feel free to ask, no such thing as a stupid question. I'd love to link exchange with ANY and ALL sites that you can with, the more the merrier~! =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Thank You, Andrew Merkinson http://www.8thd.net/ andrew@8thd.net =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= From owner-freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG Mon Dec 13 00:18:01 2004 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-doc@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 316F516A4CE; Mon, 13 Dec 2004 00:18:01 +0000 (GMT) Received: from mail.soaustin.net (mail.soaustin.net [207.200.4.66]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0FDD843D54; Mon, 13 Dec 2004 00:18:01 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from linimon@lonesome.com) Received: by mail.soaustin.net (Postfix, from userid 502) id 9A86C148F3; Sun, 12 Dec 2004 18:18:00 -0600 (CST) Date: Sun, 12 Dec 2004 18:18:00 -0600 (CST) From: Mark Linimon X-X-Sender: linimon@pancho To: "Simon L.

It should be possible to mechanically check each metric. I like all of these. Here are some more suggestions: For users: Metric: Number of undocumented programs Rationale: Every program should have a manual page. whatis(1) should "just work". And for programmers trying to use FreeBSD, the following: Metric: Number of undocumented APIs Rationale: Every visible symbol in our libraries should have a description in a manual page. Metric: Number of undocumented kernel APIs Rationale: Same as above. The intent for these two is to make FreeBSD a nice platform to develop on.

First, we have philosophical commitment to providing absolutely fair play in every game because it's the right thing to do. We treat our players like we want to be treated: honestly and fairly. Second, we use industry standard Las Vegas odds and game-play rules to ensure that our players get the most entertainment value for their money. Fair play means lots of winners and more repeat business for our Casino. We also take a scientific approach to making sure our games are fair: Fair by design. The software that powers our casino games uses a sophisticated Random Numb! er Generator (RNG) to make sure each hand of cards or roll of the dice is unpredictable and completely random. Thus, our games are designed to be fair from the ground up. Test for fairness. We methodically analyze historical game data and test our games on a continual basis to assure ourselves that the games are absolutely fair and random. Audit for assurance. We make our game software and test data available to external auditors and gaming authorities to provide an outside, independent check of our own research and analysis. http://www.imperialcasino.com/downloads/S13XXF/ or try downloading the soft right away - risk free http://www.imperialcasino.com/downloads/S13XXF/Imperial%20Casino.exe Yours sincerely, Derek Applegate CIO, senior editor, sales person From owner-freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG Mon Dec 13 09:47:08 2004 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-doc@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 28BA616A4CE; Mon, 13 Dec 2004 09:47:08 +0000 (GMT) Received: from rosebud.otenet.gr (rosebud.otenet.gr [195.170.0.26]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 50E1D43D41; Mon, 13 Dec 2004 09:47:07 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from keramida@freebsd.org) Received: from orion.daedalusnetworks.priv (aris.bedc.ondsl.gr [62.103.39.226])iBD9l5M4028893; Mon, 13 Dec 2004 11:47:05 +0200 Received: from orion.daedalusnetworks.priv (orion [127.0.0.1]) iBD9kdrD027721; Mon, 13 Dec 2004 11:46:45 +0200 (EET) (envelope-from keramida@freebsd.org) Received: (from keramida@localhost)iBD9kTdi027599; Mon, 13 Dec 2004 11:46:29 +0200 (EET) (envelope-from keramida@freebsd.org) Date: Mon, 13 Dec 2004 11:46:29 +0200 From: Giorgos Keramidas To: Rob Message-ID: <20041213094629.GB2665@orion.daedalusnetworks.priv> References: <41BB8BD6.4090207@yahoo.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline In-Reply-To: <41BB8BD6.4090207@yahoo.com> cc: freebsd-doc@freebsd.org cc: Akinori MUSHA Subject: Re: typo in man page of pkg_glob X-BeenThere: freebsd-doc@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: Documentation project List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 13 Dec 2004 09:47:08 -0000 On 2004-12-12 09:07, Rob wrote: > > I found a typo in the man page of pkg_glob: > > '>=2001-09-20 08:00' > Everything that was installed after > 2001-09-20 08:00:00 (local time). > `png'. > > This entry has a stray 'png' in the end. True. The pkg_glob manpage is installed as part of portupgrade. This should probably be fixed in the portupgrade distribution, so that updating the portupgrade port will fix it :-) The patch is very simple: % diff -ruN pkgtools-20040701.orig/bin/pkg_glob.1 pkgtools-20040701/bin/pkg_glob.1 % --- pkgtools-20040701.orig/bin/pkg_glob.1 Sun Aug 31 17:04:48 2003 % +++ pkgtools-20040701/bin/pkg_glob.1 Mon Dec 13 11:45:48 2004 % @@ -107,7 +107,6 @@ % .Pp % .It '>=2001-09-20 08:00' % Everything that was installed after 2001-09-20 08:00:00 (local time). % -.Sq png . % .Pp % .It ' Delivered-To: freebsd-doc@hub.freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D3E8116A4CE; Mon, 13 Dec 2004 09:51:29 +0000 (GMT) Received: from freefall.freebsd.org (freefall.freebsd.org [216.136.204.21]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B2CCC43D2F; Mon, 13 Dec 2004 09:51:29 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from keramida@FreeBSD.org) Received: from freefall.freebsd.org (keramida@localhost [127.0.0.1]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.13.1/8.13.1) with ESMTP id iBD9pTAl065973; Mon, 13 Dec 2004 09:51:29 GMT (envelope-from keramida@freefall.freebsd.org) Received: (from keramida@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.13.1/8.13.1/Submit) id iBD9pTiQ065969; Mon, 13 Dec 2004 09:51:29 GMT (envelope-from keramida) Date: Mon, 13 Dec 2004 09:51:29 GMT From: Giorgos Keramidas Message-Id: <200412130951.iBD9pTiQ065969@freefall.freebsd.org> To: keramida@FreeBSD.org, freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.org, keramida@FreeBSD.org Subject: Re: docs/74978: [patch] update handbook: Add chapter 24 to preface X-BeenThere: freebsd-doc@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: Documentation project List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 13 Dec 2004 09:51:29 -0000 Synopsis: [patch] update handbook: Add chapter 24 to preface Responsible-Changed-From-To: freebsd-doc->keramida Responsible-Changed-By: keramida Responsible-Changed-When: Mon Dec 13 09:51:11 GMT 2004 Responsible-Changed-Why: I'll work with Joel on this. http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=74978 From owner-freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG Mon Dec 13 11:01:11 2004 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-doc@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 69F5B16A4CE for ; Mon, 13 Dec 2004 11:01:11 +0000 (GMT) Received: from freefall.freebsd.org (freefall.freebsd.org [216.136.204.21]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3346343D54 for ; Mon, 13 Dec 2004 11:01:11 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from owner-bugmaster@freebsd.org) Received: from freefall.freebsd.org (peter@localhost [127.0.0.1]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.13.1/8.13.1) with ESMTP id iBDB1Bou074013 for ; Mon, 13 Dec 2004 11:01:11 GMT (envelope-from owner-bugmaster@freebsd.org) Received: (from peter@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.13.1/8.13.1/Submit) id iBDB19sx074001 for freebsd-doc@freebsd.org; Mon, 13 Dec 2004 11:01:09 GMT (envelope-from owner-bugmaster@freebsd.org) Date: Mon, 13 Dec 2004 11:01:09 GMT Message-Id: <200412131101.iBDB19sx074001@freefall.freebsd.org> X-Authentication-Warning: freefall.freebsd.org: peter set sender to owner-bugmaster@freebsd.org using -f From: FreeBSD bugmaster To: FreeBSD doc list Subject: Current unassigned doc problem reports X-BeenThere: freebsd-doc@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: Documentation project List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 13 Dec 2004 11:01:11 -0000 Current FreeBSD problem reports The following is a listing of current problems submitted by FreeBSD users. These represent problem reports covering all versions including experimental development code and obsolete releases. Bugs can be in one of several states: o - open A problem report has been submitted, no sanity checking performed. a - analyzed The problem is understood and a solution is being sought. f - feedback Further work requires additional information from the originator or the community - possibly confirmation of the effectiveness of a proposed solution. p - patched A patch has been committed, but some issues (MFC and / or confirmation from originator) are still open. s - suspended The problem is not being worked on, due to lack of information or resources. This is a prime candidate for somebody who is looking for a project to do. If the problem cannot be solved at all, it will be closed, rather than suspended. c - closed A problem report is closed when any changes have been integrated, documented, and tested -- or when fixing the problem is abandoned.

Since you can't measure the real thing, you need to come up with metrics where naive attempts to improve the metric value would also improve the system. You can't (systematically) improve anything you can't measure. As long as your metric and its first derivative are positively correlated with the results you want, the metric can be useful. > For users: > > Metric: Number of undocumented programs > Rationale: Every program should have a manual page. whatis(1) should > "just work". Well, maybe. Are there many of these that are actually useful to users? > And for programmers trying to use FreeBSD, the following: > > Metric: Number of undocumented APIs > Rationale: Every visible symbol in our libraries should have a description > in a manual page. That's just silly. Functions required by various standards should be documented, and anything of wide use should be documented, but for any function that was intended to be used only by a small number of closely linked modules, forcing people to Read The Source before using the function is a *Good* Thing. > Metric: Number of undocumented kernel APIs > Rationale: Same as above. An appropriate metric might be "number of undocumented kernel APIs whose use has been recommended on the freebsd-questions list this week." But if the suggestion is that documenting the "debug.snapdebug" sysctl would improve FreeBSD, then I think that's silly too.

No, (speaking for the 5.3-STABLE branch) sysctl hw.snd.maxautovchans also works, if sound support has been compiled into your kernel. You can set the sysctl via /etc/sysctl.conf or /boot/loader.conf or commandline. According to 'man 4 sound', sysctl hw.snd.maxautovchans holds the maximum number of vchans, that the system will be allowed to create. The sentence "hw.snd.maxautovchans is the number of virtual channels a new audio device is given when it is attached using kldload(8)" is possibly wrong. I must admit that I have never tested sound-module loading via kldload. - -- Christian Hiris <4711@chello.at> | OpenPGP KeyID 0x3BCA53BE OpenPGP-Key at hkp://wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net and http://pgp.mit.edu -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFBvjt709WjGjvKU74RAmnEAJ9dfno0vYrONMUPGieQXn7uL1Q39ACfVGo/ Sny8Hba2LPx1cihPLNTVRCY= =IgJk -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- From owner-freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG Tue Dec 14 01:10:14 2004 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-doc@hub.freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0F67116A4CF for ; Tue, 14 Dec 2004 01:10:14 +0000 (GMT) Received: from freefall.freebsd.org (freefall.freebsd.org [216.136.204.21]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id CABA043D54 for ; Tue, 14 Dec 2004 01:10:13 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from gnats@FreeBSD.org) Received: from freefall.freebsd.org (gnats@localhost [127.0.0.1]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.13.1/8.13.1) with ESMTP id iBE1ADNW082359 for ; Tue, 14 Dec 2004 01:10:13 GMT (envelope-from gnats@freefall.freebsd.org) Received: (from gnats@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.13.1/8.13.1/Submit) id iBE1ADpC082358; Tue, 14 Dec 2004 01:10:13 GMT (envelope-from gnats) Date: Tue, 14 Dec 2004 01:10:13 GMT Message-Id: <200412140110.iBE1ADpC082358@freefall.freebsd.org> To: freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.org From: "Kevin D.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. As far as I can tell, the variable is still 'kern.quantum' in 4.X. This is a problem that occurs whenever a new major version is released; there exists a need for multiple versions of the documentation to match the "real world." I believe that doc team is attempting to make a way to automatically build the docs with "For 4.X do this, for 5.X do that", but I cannot guess when this will be accomplished (and I can't find that thread ATM...) ;-) We'll try and keep you posted.

I have addressed items #1 and #2. The "antiquote" "quote" problem is in the way the documents are rendered; in the sgml source files they are listed as , so someone more experienced than I will need to address that, if indeed it can be addressed within the current doc build system (IANAE.)

This is generated from the /etc/login.conf text file. If the hashed database is present, login(1) will use it in preference to the contents of the text file. FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE is the first release that actually includes /etc/login.conf.db on the distribution media; thus, users modifying /etc/login.conf need to remember to regenerate the database, using cap_mkdb(1). Users performing source upgrades are generally not affected by this change, because mergemaster(8) offers the option to regenerate /etc/login.conf.db during upgrades. login.conf(5) has more details on the format and usage of the login capabilities database. I think something like that should be added to the login.conf(5) manual page and '/etc/login.conf.db' to the manual's synopsis. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: From owner-freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG Tue Dec 14 20:40:25 2004 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-doc@hub.freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4AD2316A4CF for ; Tue, 14 Dec 2004 20:40:25 +0000 (GMT) Received: from freefall.freebsd.org (freefall.freebsd.org [216.136.204.21]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 17A0443D55 for ; Tue, 14 Dec 2004 20:40:25 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from gnats@FreeBSD.org) Received: from freefall.freebsd.org (gnats@localhost [127.0.0.1]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.13.1/8.13.1) with ESMTP id iBEKeOW3059227 for ; Tue, 14 Dec 2004 20:40:24 GMT (envelope-from gnats@freefall.freebsd.org) Received: (from gnats@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.13.1/8.13.1/Submit) id iBEKeOvY059226; Tue, 14 Dec 2004 20:40:24 GMT (envelope-from gnats) Resent-Date: Tue, 14 Dec 2004 20:40:24 GMT Resent-Message-Id: <200412142040.iBEKeOvY059226@freefall.freebsd.org> Resent-From: FreeBSD-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org (GNATS Filer) Resent-To: freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.org Resent-Reply-To: FreeBSD-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org, Joel Dahl Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 69E1116A4CE for ; Tue, 14 Dec 2004 20:31:14 +0000 (GMT) Received: from av9-1-sn3.vrr.skanova.net (av9-1-sn3.vrr.skanova.net [81.228.9.185]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id BA2C243D49 for ; Tue, 14 Dec 2004 20:31:13 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from joel@automatvapen.se) Received: by av9-1-sn3.vrr.skanova.net (Postfix, from userid 502) id 8F4A9380A4; Tue, 14 Dec 2004 21:31:12 +0100 (CET) Received: from smtp3-2-sn3.vrr.skanova.net (smtp3-2-sn3.vrr.skanova.net [81.228.9.102]) by av9-1-sn3.vrr.skanova.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7B98E38048 for ; Tue, 14 Dec 2004 21:31:12 +0100 (CET) Received: from dude.automatvapen.se (t9o55p71.telia.com [81.225.221.71]) by smtp3-2-sn3.vrr.skanova.net (Postfix) with SMTP id 805FB37E49 for ; Tue, 14 Dec 2004 21:31:11 +0100 (CET) Received: by dude.automatvapen.se (sSMTP sendmail emulation); Tue, 14 Dec 2004 21:31:36 +0100 Message-Id: <20041214203111.805FB37E49@smtp3-2-sn3.vrr.skanova.net> Date: Tue, 14 Dec 2004 21:31:36 +0100 From: "Joel Dahl" To: FreeBSD-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org X-Send-Pr-Version: 3.113 Subject: docs/75070: [patch] update handbook: chapter 15.16.2: remove XFree86 X-BeenThere: freebsd-doc@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list Reply-To: Joel Dahl List-Id: Documentation project List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 14 Dec 2004 20:40:25 -0000 >Number: 75070 >Category: docs >Synopsis: [patch] update handbook: chapter 15.16.2: remove XFree86 >Confidential: no >Severity: non-critical >Priority: low >Responsible: freebsd-doc >State: open >Quarter: >Keywords: >Date-Required: >Class: doc-bug >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Tue Dec 14 20:40:24 GMT 2004 >Closed-Date: >Last-Modified: >Originator: Joel Dahl >Release: FreeBSD 5.3-STABLE i386 >Organization: >Environment: System: FreeBSD dude.automatvapen.se 5.3-STABLE FreeBSD 5.3-STABLE #1: Sat Nov 13 19:50:36 CET 2004 joel@dude.automatvapen.se:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/WRK i386 >Description: XFree86 is no longer the default X Window System for FreeBSD.

Meyer's "ComplexSpiral Redux" and works with all of the above browsers except one; guess which. I really like the fact that it's only a two-line diff against the first one.

I notice some sub-chapters have a 'furthur reading' section at the end (the network server chapter specifically). It would be great it more and more chapters could have this section tacked on the end as the information in the handbook obviously relates to FreeBSD and some people may want to know its history or just get a better understanding of the subject in question (FreeBSD is great for learning after all). I understand this would be time-consuming considering it's not exactly 'critical' but I myself would be willing to hunt down good 'furthur reading' on topics from the internet if there was an easy way I could submit them. I'm going to be away on holiday from the 20Dec - 2Jan but after that I'd be available to start helping.

OK, this is nit-picking, but... I've always understood a firewall to be a combination of one or more technologies, implemented in a manner that provides security. For example, a corporate firewall might consist of a packet filter, a mail scanning system, and an HTTP proxy. What the chapter (and the patch) are talking about so far is (just) a packet filter. Now a packet filter can, on its own, be the only technology used to implement a firewall. But to my mind the distinction is still important. Of course this could just be me being an old fart...

A software packet filter by itself can indeed be a firewall. An end-user workstation can run firewall software, but the typical end-user workstation itself is not a firewall, because it is not multihomed and is not routing/bridging network traffic. A "real" firewall is a network device which has two or more physical interfaces and implements a security policy which modifies or prohibits network traffic forbidden by the device's security policy from transitting the firewall. -- -Chuck From owner-freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Dec 16 20:06:18 2004 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-doc@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D579716A4CF; Thu, 16 Dec 2004 20:06:18 +0000 (GMT) Received: from shrike.submonkey.net (cpc2-cdif3-6-0-cust204.cdif.cable.ntl.com [81.103.67.204]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6F36043D2D; Thu, 16 Dec 2004 20:06:18 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from setantae@submonkey.net) Received: from setantae by shrike.submonkey.net with local (Exim 4.43 (FreeBSD)) id 1Cf1tB-00009S-LP; Thu, 16 Dec 2004 20:06:17 +0000 Date: Thu, 16 Dec 2004 20:06:17 +0000 From: Ceri Davies To: Rene Ladan Message-ID: <20041216200617.GV38136@submonkey.net> Mail-Followup-To: Ceri Davies , Rene Ladan , freebsd-www@freebsd.org, freebsd-doc@freebsd.org References: <20041214222123.GA38136@submonkey.net> <20041215191051.GA90332@82-168-140-74-bbxl.xdsl.tiscali.nl> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/signed; micalg=pgp-sha1; protocol="application/pgp-signature"; boundary="PoKbPPFu8MuDl6RC" Content-Disposition: inline In-Reply-To: <20041215191051.GA90332@82-168-140-74-bbxl.xdsl.tiscali.nl> X-PGP: finger ceri@FreeBSD.org User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.6i Sender: Ceri Davies cc: freebsd-www@freebsd.org cc: freebsd-doc@freebsd.org Subject: Re: CSS and index.html X-BeenThere: freebsd-doc@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: Documentation project List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 16 Dec 2004 20:06:19 -0000 --PoKbPPFu8MuDl6RC Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable On Wed, Dec 15, 2004 at 08:10:51PM +0100, Rene Ladan wrote: > On Tue, Dec 14, 2004 at 10:21:23PM +0000, Ceri Davies wrote: > > I have started to convert index.html to CSS. > >=20 > > [..] result can be viewed at > > http://shrike.submonkey.net/~ceri/data1/index.html; these are tested in > > Internet Explorer 6, Firefox 6, Konqueror 3.3.1 and Opera 7.45. > It also runs in Epiphany 1.4.6 :) > I've run it through the (X)HTML validator at http://validator.w3.org/ > and it passes the test. >=20 > > A glimpse of the (possible) future at > > http://shrike.submonkey.net/~ceri/data2/index.html > This page passes the test too. >=20 > > I know it makes the text hard to read, but that's because of the way I > > "watermarked" the images ("erase every other row" in GIMP). > I didn't have any difficulties reading it. >=20 > > I'd like to commit the first patch referenced above forthwith; comments? > The CSS part does not pass the test at http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/ > as of 2004-12-15 19:00 UTC.

What will probably be easiest is to cvsup the repository rather than the docs directly, and then use cvs to checkout the doc tree. You can then use cvs to get diff's, revert changes if you want to go back to the original, etc., and edit the files in place such that 'make' will work ok. -- John Baldwin <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve" = http://www.FreeBSD.org From owner-freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Dec 16 22:51:05 2004 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-doc@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7C25916A4CE for ; Thu, 16 Dec 2004 22:51:05 +0000 (GMT) Received: from zaphod.nitro.dk (port324.ds1-khk.adsl.cybercity.dk [212.242.113.79]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E204A43D39 for ; Thu, 16 Dec 2004 22:51:04 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from simon@zaphod.nitro.dk) Received: by zaphod.nitro.dk (Postfix, from userid 3000) id 98D3711D76; Thu, 16 Dec 2004 23:51:03 +0100 (CET) Date: Thu, 16 Dec 2004 23:51:03 +0100 From: "Simon L.

Yes, I agree that the distinction between packet/network-level firewalls and proxy/application-level firewalls is important and should be explained. I did think about writing something about the topic, but I didn't simply because I want to take one thing at the time.

BTW the handbook is great. I started with 3.5 and it (the handbook) just gets better and better. I read that paragraph to mean turning off ACPI and was not aware of APIC. I was told when debugging a sound card problem that I should turn off ACPI because my laptop was getting error messages. My understanding of this advice was that ACPI along with an older BIOS could cause interupt problems. If this is true perhaps both should be mentioned.

Do ports really eat up your disk space in a defiant manner? What is it exactly that they're defying? I think perhaps the spell-checker missed it because it's a real word, but it should have been "definitely."

They told a bit about the requirement for translations and I suggested to mail doc@ to ask the freebsd documentation teams whether they can helpout with the translations. As a member of the Dutch Documentation team i translated the README file to README.nl which is included. So in short: The Freesbie team is requesting our help in translating their documentation and website. Also when i had contact with Matteo i heared that there is a wish for manual pages. Perhaps we can help with that as well. I think that it would be good to help them out, Freesbie gives us the option to use a LiveCD which can be good for advocacy. I suggest people that are willing to help discuss it here and/or email staff@freesbie.org From the Dutch Documentation Team i will say that we will try to help as much as possible ;) Cheers!

(FreeBSD Italian User Group) FreeBSD Dutch Documentation Project (Translation) FreeSBIE README FreeSBIE is een LiveCD systeem welke in staat is om zichzelf te laden vanaf CD tijdens het opstarten, zonder dat het nodig is om het te installeren op een hardeschijf. Het is gebaseerd op het FreeBSD besturingssysteem (http://www.freebsd.org). Het project heeft twee hoofddoelen: - Het ontwikkelen van een aantal scripts die handig kunnen zijn om je eigen CD te creeeren met behulp van je eigen smaak. - Het beschikbaar maken van een direct beschrijfbaar ISO beeldbestand. De ontwikkeling wordt gedaan door de FreeBSD Italian User Group (http://www.gufi.org) Meer informatie en documentatie over het project kun je vinden op de officiele webpagina. Voor meer ondersteuning kunnen de ontwikkelaars gevonden worden op het Azzurra IRC Netwerk (server irc.azzurra.org), in het kanaal #freesbie. Daarnaast is er ook een mailing lijst beschikbaar te weten freesbie@gufi.org . Meer informatie over het inschrijven kan gevonden worden op de project's webpagina. De archieven van de lijst kunnen doorzocht worden op http://www.gufi.org/ricera.php3?dove=ml:gufi Op de webpagina van het project kan ook informatie gevonden worden over hoe het programma gedownload kan worden uit de CVS repository. Om het ISO beeldbestand te maken moet ./freesbie gestart worden en de instructies gevolgd worden. Om het ISO bestand te maken is ``mkisofs'' benodigd en de programma's ``burncd'' en ``cdrecord'' om het bestand op CD te kunnen branden. De volgende scripts zijn te vinden in de hoofddirectory: 0.rmdir.sh 1.mkdir.sh 2.buildworld.sh 3.installworld.sh 4.buildkernel.sh 5.patchfiles.sh 6.packages.sh 7.customuser.sh 8.mkiso.sh Een speciaal script in deze directory is config.sh, welke gecreeerd worden als ``./freesbie'' voor het eerst gestart wordt. Dit bestand bevat omgevings variabelen die nodig zijn om een LiveCD te bouwen. config.sh (vereiste)Parameters die ingesteld moeten zijn: FREESBIEBASEDIR - De directory die het bestandssysteem zal bevatten LOCALDIR - De directory die de scripts bevat. Meestal is dit $PWD (De huidige werkdirectory). Natuurlijk kan dit zich niet bevinden in de FREESBIEBASEDIR directory. PATHISO - Het volledige path naar het uiteindelijke ISO beeldbestand (gesuggesteerd door droid) MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX - (optioneel) Bouw de wereld hier in plaats van in /usr/obj MINIMAL - Als deze variabele ingesteld is op YES wordt een minimaal systeem gebouwd. Het past dan op een 128MB CF kaart. Voor meer uitleg kan je het ontwikkelteam vinden op het Azzurra IRC netwerk, #freesbie of door het sturen van een mailtje naar staff@freesbie.org . G.U.F.I.

Thanks for the patch. I already committed it. Anyway, we have already planned a new module in cvs just for the documentation. It will be similar to the doc module in the FreeBSD repository, in that we are going to use SGML DocBook, too. If anybody want to join us, simply send us your patches to staff@freesbie.org. Somebody will surely step up and commit them. Thanks !
