You might be aware of a matrix maths tool called MATLAB (from the Mathworks at www.mathworks.com) which has much application in EE areas such as control and signal processing. Up until recently, there was no compiler for the MATLAB language (which is usually interpretted) and another person developed a compiler. This compiler is a commercial venture and the people involved are called Mathtools (see their web site at www.mathtools.com). They offer a set of C++ classes to support matrix maths and also their original product of a matlab like language compiler. I have verified that this product runs OK on FreeBSD 2.2 RELEASE (for which they gave me a free licence) and the Mathtools are interested in being mentioned on your web site as a commercial supplier --- see enclosed email from them and I am also CC-ing them a copy of this email. Would you mind adding them to the list of FreeBSD commercial software providers and, if you do, could you please let them know as they want to keep any information of their product up to date.

Plain text works too, but then they also have to somehow tell us which text should contain links and where they should point to, so HTML's probably easier. We prefer that this text be supplied directly by the vendor in order to prevent any misunderstanding. If I write a description for MATLAB and it's totally inaccurate, for example, then this is likely to be worse than never having mentioned it at all. When the vendor supplies it, the worst they can do is yell at their marketing dept. for supplying bogus text. :-) Jordan From owner-freebsd-www Mon Mar 24 19:42:14 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) id TAA08264 for www-outgoing; Mon, 24 Mar 1997 19:42:14 -0800 (PST) Received: from underground.multipro.com (root@[207.120.178.12]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id TAA08249 for ; Mon, 24 Mar 1997 19:42:04 -0800 (PST) Received: from localhost (dcm@localhost) by underground.multipro.com (8.7.5/8.7.3) with SMTP id VAA00417 for ; Mon, 24 Mar 1997 21:41:19 -0600 (CST) Date: Mon, 24 Mar 1997 21:41:18 -0600 (CST) From: Donnie Moss To: webmaster@freebsd.org Subject: Mirror Sight?

Sure! Please see http://ftp.cdrom.com/pub/FreeBSD/ for information important to new mirrors. If you would also be willing to run the DNS for mx.freebsd.org, then you can manage the FTP/WWW name space for Mexico directly, something which would allow you to be more reactive to changes in the list of available mirror/www/cvsup/... sites in Mexico.

Perhaps we can modify the mail list manager so that an user who sends a message to -questions and isn't on the subscription list automagically gets a copy of "How to get the most of..." mailed back to them. This will probably cut down the number of completely newbie requests to 2 or 3 per user. > My second point.

It > does state that a search functions is available, but the presentation of > the info points to the mailing list first and the search function as an > alternative. I didn't look too hard, but maybe a version of the 'How to > get more...' message should be posted on the website so that if the user > chooses to send a message to the mailing list, they must read this message > first. I believe this should probably be reworded to reflect that you are probably (99.5% likely) *not* encountering a problem for the first time. Users should be directed to look through the archives first, before sending email to thousands of users all over the world. Postnews used to throw up this lovely message each time you tried to post, saying something to the effect that this message is going to travel over most of the civilized world, costing various people money, are you sure the world cannot live without these comments. If everyone kept this in mind each time they fire off a message, we'd keep the signal to noise ratio here much higher. > As an alternative, maybe a webpage can be created with the top ten (or > twenty) most common questions and answers.

Most human beings, confronted by any list with more that 7 items, will divide it into chunks and ignore all chunks except the one that contains what they're looking for. (Research by Card, Moran, and Newell). A simple blurb beseeching new users to read, or at least browse the FAQ and search for their problem in the -questions archives before posting would be helpful as well. > The first two that > come to mind are the problem of the missing lib in emacs (from the 2.1.5R > CDROM) and the infamous atapi.flp. These both come immediately to mind as well. PPP routing and demaind dialing, the original cause of this thread, is pretty well up there, too. All three of these have been answered quite well recently and are great questions for the "read this before asking yet another newbie question" page. I'll edit the support page and send my suggestions to the WebMaster. I know I could just say to myself "Been there, done that," but often I see these repeated questions go buy and several nosensical answers come up each time, I really want to spare fellow FreeBSDers, even newbies, the irritation of trying all these things that don't work. I should gather my notes into one coherent set of instructions and publish them all over the FreeBSD universe. I'll try to get this done in the next week or so. In the meantime, thanks for a useful discussion. -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"

Actually, it appears as though there is no 2.2.1R directory (yet). -john From owner-freebsd-www Sat Mar 29 20:06:14 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) id UAA04602 for www-outgoing; Sat, 29 Mar 1997 20:06:14 -0800 (PST) Received: from hemi.com (hemi.com [204.132.158.10]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id UAA04588 for ; Sat, 29 Mar 1997 20:06:05 -0800 (PST) Received: (from mbarkah@localhost) by hemi.com (8.8.5/8.7.3) id VAA16383; Sat, 29 Mar 1997 21:06:02 -0700 (MST) From: Ade Barkah Message-Id: <199703300406.VAA16383@hemi.com> Subject: Re: your mail To: nsj@freefall.freebsd.org (Nate Johnson) Date: Sat, 29 Mar 1997 21:06:01 -0700 (MST) Cc: www@freebsd.org In-Reply-To: <199703300209.SAA28148@freefall.freebsd.org> from Nate Johnson at "Mar 29, 97 06:09:13 pm" X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL22 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-www@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk > What's the scoop on adding a file to the makefile for www? notes.sgml, > who lives in data/releases/2.2.1R, needs an entry.

Hi Nate, I just happened commit the necessary changes, but for the future, when you add a new releases directory, you need to: 1) Add a Makefile in that new directory. The filename (easily enough) should be "Makefile". You can simply copy the Makefile from one of the other release subdirectories and modify it to suit your needs (modify the DOCS variable to contain all the .sgml pages in this new directory.) So, the 2.2.1R Makefile will look like: DOCS= notes.sgml .include "../../web.mk" Also do the 'cvs add Makefile ' as appropriate. 2) Modify www/data/releases/Makefile, so its SUBDIR variable contains the new directory. The line looks something like: SUBDIR= 1.1 1.1.5 2.0 2.0.5A 2.0.5R (...etc...) so we just need to add "2.2.1R" at the end. Anyhow, when you have a chance, do a 'cvs update' within your cvs working directory and browse through the Makefiles in releases/ and its subdirectory. For new releases, try to html-ize the announcement (announce.html) and the README file, as well as the release notes. Then, in addition to the above: 3) Update www/data/includes.sgml (the a.latest.not and a.latest.ann macros needs to point to the new files), and 4) Update releases/index.sgml so the "Current Releases" reflect this new release. Move the old release to the "Past Releases" section. I haven't done step 3) nor 4) above... the net-lag from my machine to freefall is unbearable right now. =-( Thanks! -Ade ------------------------------------------------------------------- Inet: mbarkah@hemi.com - HEMISPHERE ONLINE - ------------------------------------------------------------------- From owner-freebsd-www Sat Mar 29 20:17:00 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) id UAA05153 for www-outgoing; Sat, 29 Mar 1997 20:17:00 -0800 (PST) Received: from hemi.com (hemi.com [204.132.158.10]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id UAA05147 for ; Sat, 29 Mar 1997 20:16:49 -0800 (PST) Received: (from mbarkah@localhost) by hemi.com (8.8.5/8.7.3) id VAA16684; Sat, 29 Mar 1997 21:16:34 -0700 (MST) From: Ade Barkah Message-Id: <199703300416.VAA16684@hemi.com> Subject: Re: your mail To: jfieber@indiana.edu (John Fieber) Date: Sat, 29 Mar 1997 21:16:34 -0700 (MST) Cc: nsj@freefall.freebsd.org, www@freebsd.org In-Reply-To: from John Fieber at "Mar 29, 97 10:45:36 pm" X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL22 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-www@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk John Fieber wrote: > On Sat, 29 Mar 1997, Nate Johnson wrote: > > > What's the scoop on adding a file to the makefile for www? notes.sgml, > > who lives in data/releases/2.2.1R, needs an entry.

Actually Nate added it yesterday (Friday.) You may need to re- checkout the sources or use 'cvs update -d' to see it. I think ./bin/webupdate doesn't do a -d, so it might miss the 2.2.1R directory during rebuilds.

Ya, that is a bit of a glitch. With the -d option, the update drags in the entire ports collection instead of just updating the INDEX file. :( The new directory will have to be manually checked out into the build tree. -john
