Hope this is enough :-) That's great, thanks! I'll be (mostly) AFK for a few days, but will hopefully get to make another pass on this on the weekend. One concern I had was that by duplicating what's in src/UPDATING, there's the opportunity for these to be inconsistent (or appear to be inconsistent from the viewpoint of people who might not know the difference). Originally I just had a reference to src/UPDATING.=20 Whatever the end state is, this document and src/UPDATING should be consistent...clearly there is more time to work that out. Thanks again! Bruce. PS. current@ and doc@ members, please continue discussions, I'll catch up later. --=-N7jKqwlousBMNaUrs3Tm Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBBPhkc2MoxcVugUsMRAmkYAJ4msCyK7bZnV0EQtEDIIRgVElyDKwCeKfEp wHXClBmPyfvQXzEDT53hPOY= =Pjl7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-N7jKqwlousBMNaUrs3Tm--
