Hi ctm-users@freebsd.org, Andrew wrote: > For example when I requested ctm-src-9 What service is this that Andrew is using ? Is it some service from mailman (like get with majordomo) ? ( Prob. not ref'd in content of last URL below *** in this email ? ) He's not fetching from eg http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/ctm-svn-cur/ I'm subscribed to all lists as per: > From: Stephen Montgomery-Smith <stephen@missouri.edu> > However - there is also a ctm-src-9-fast mailing list, where you will & also when I occasionaly have a local mail failure, I 'fetch' from mirrors, eg ftp://ftp2.de.freebsd.org/ /pub/FreeBSD/development/CTM/cvs-cur/cvs-cur.19167.gz /pub/FreeBSD/development/CTM/ports-cur/ports-cur.9700.gz /pub/FreeBSD/development/CTM/src-4/src-4.2351.gz /pub/FreeBSD/development/CTM/src-5/src-5.0860.gz /pub/FreeBSD/development/CTM/src-6/src-6.1634.gz /pub/FreeBSD/development/CTM/src-7/src-7.1676.gz /pub/FreeBSD/development/CTM/src-8/src-8.1433.gz /pub/FreeBSD/development/CTM/src-9/src-9.0555.gz /pub/FreeBSD/development/CTM/src-cur/src-cur.10748.gz /pub/FreeBSD/development/CTM/svn-cur/svn-cur.01107.xz /pub/FreeBSD/development/CTM/svn-ports-cur/svn-ports-cur.00109.xz but I guess Andrew is using some other fetch by mail service ? What ? ---- I think there should be a link from http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/synching.html not justexisting link to http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=ctm_rmail&sektion=1 but also a new link to *** http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ctm.html Content of that last URL looks ancient with eg: "There is a sequence of deltas for the ports collection too, but interest has not been all that high yet" (There's been a whole load of ctm lists for maybe a decade.) Probably easiest if someone does an edit rewrite of whole page then asks Stephen to bless it as correct, & the freebsd doc team to replace whole old page, much less work than a load of small diff edits ? (Only catch is unfortunately freebsd web team work with an SGML tool chain that has over 10 years here, has almost constantly broken & conflicted with other ports, so its not just a trivial edit in HTML job. ) Cheers, Julian -- Julian Stacey, BSD Unix Linux C Sys Eng Consultant, Munich http://berklix.com Reply below not above, like a play script.
