I guess I could write something up about what is needed to build the site from the cvs tree... but here are my comments: a) there are a few hard coded values, such as access_log and where analog is install b) the hard coded values don't even agree.. one place uses /home/www and another place uses /usr/local/www c) even though they are converting to nsgmls it still requires instant from sgmls (the one included in freebsd) d) building of ja_JP.EUC is broken, a little modification to the Makefile fixes it... c is minor as it just required a simple cvs co and compile... but it was slightly unexpected... and yes I know about the plans to move over to nsgmls... other than that it didn't go that bad... if your interested in my patches I'm willing to send them done the line... and thanks for all the hardwork you guys have put into making this possible... ttyl..
